Invisible Ink

I am no one special, nothing of note,

I've made no accomplishments

thousands of women before me haven't already made.

I have not been to a war zone,

or a third world country (yet),

I haven't made any world-shattering discovers,

or peace-keeping treaties,

or tear-jerker movies,

or donated a billion dollars to earthquake relief,

led a social movement or protested too loudly against an injustice.

Does that make me less important?

My life story less unique?

Will my history be written in invisible ink?
