I can tell no great love story.

I was never an underdog risen up to save humanity.

I'm just a girl who has zero to no idea what she's doing.

I'm afraid to tell any story for fear of judgment and condemnation from those who are holier-than-thou.  

I cannot imagine that anyone could actually truly care about what I think, what I notice, what I feel.  

Perhaps...it's a risk worth taking.

Perhaps...someday...someone will give a sh!t.

Or, even better

(for me, worse for them),

they will be able to relate.

This piece is a bit like a poem.  I appreciated the frankness of your speaker.  It would work well as a kind of introductory poem / set of statements for a collection of other parts of your work.

To offer a critique, I wouldn't have minded seeing these lines more fleshed out like short paragraphs perhaps.
