In that someone, I keep seeking for me,
In that someone, I look for traces of me,
I found her there, standing so near me,
As I looked in the mirror, right in front of me...

I looked at her eyes staring back at me,
I searched for the words she tried to tell to me,
I saw a furtive look in her eyes beseeching me,
Pleading with me, 'At least you understand me"...

I tried to reach out to her, she moved away from me,
I tried to console her, she just stared at me,
I knew she needed me, as much I needed her,
Till I see a look of peace, happiness smiling back at me....

I hold the sun & the night
in the tendrils of my hair.
They mesh and combine,
instead of bicker and fight.
It's like that in my blood,
the avenues of veins,
in the suburbs of my inner cities.
Possessing both the dark
and the light.
The influences of good and bad.
I am both
and I am a human
Girl.
