There is a face in the mirror intently staring back at you
Attempting to recognize the one it views
You are spellbound for one quick moment, in such wonderment
As your eyes meet, and you both realize that it is you

Was it not just yesterday that you were young and naive
Without the wisdom you now hold in your eyes
Now a stranger is boldly looking back with an unflinching gaze
Brazenly daring you to try her on for size

You briefly pause in sheer amazement at these eyes you see
Beaming back at you with a strength unknown
You smile in appreciation and accept yourself as your own
Sit up proudly and put your makeup on

I dream of your lips pressed against mine.With your hands exploring my body while you press me up against a wall.

I imagine you leaving me with hickeys, scratches and bite marks.
                                                          ­      
I think of cloths scattered on the floor and of you pressing me to you so there is no space between us.

I don't want flowers, chocolates and love.
                                                           ­     
I want lip biting, messy sheets and lust.

Outside I'm just a woman
inside, just a girl that is lost
.
I seem to have direction
but maybe it's a lie with a cost
.
Setting myself simple goals to follow
as I need a continuous plan
.
It's to tell me where I am tomorrow
incase I've forgotten where I am
.
I can easily fool myself
and it's been working for a while
.
I just don't think too much
about the woman wrapped around this girl
.
Does she really know what she's doing?
Do I have any other choice?
.
Although I'm a woman physically moving
the little girl has lost her voice

It has been quite a long while
Since I last saw you
And last talk with you.
Inside me, I know it hurts
But this is the right thing to do.
There has never been a day that passed
That I have not thought of you;
Reminiscing those days I have spend with you;
The way you make me smile,
The way my heart beat fast when you're near,
The way you wrap me in your arms,
The way you say  the words "I love you".
You've filled me with love and joy before
And that's what my heart is now yearning for.
I want to move on
But I just can't,
'Coz without you,
I feel like there's a hole deep within my heart,
Which makes me feel incomplete inside.
I'm still hoping that one day,
We could be together again,
And continue to share the love we once had
Until the very end.
