A Girl Can Dream

When I saw you

No, not when I 

saw you

But when I 

saw you.

That was when I knew that there was something among me that needed you

always

to be 

near me 

or talking to me or seeing me or laughing at my jokes or holding me or just

being with me.

My heart sings when you smile

It dies when you don't

My mind floats when you laugh

It falls when you frown

I know you'll

never need me

like I need you 

internally

But 

a

girl

can

dream

  • Every July 4th

    Every July 4th, I wonder why we do this. Why we stand on the sides of the streets, watching little children hold their arms out for candy, gazing at the police cars and fire trucks rolling by in tandem.

  • Being A Teen

    Being a teen is like standing at the very edge of a tall cliff. One wrong move and it all crumbles; one wrong dress, one wrong word, one wrong love and you're over.
