This girl I know
She is just ... like a book.
Her cover is so beautiful
And yet ... forever changing looks.
But this girl's beauty
Is unlike any that you've seen.
It really comes from all those pages
Those pages in between.
Each page tells a story
Some of sorrow oh so sad.
But for every one of those that you read
You'll find one of better time's she's had.
This girl I know
She rules a realm that no one ever see's.
This girl will never show it to you
And she will never show it to me.
This girl is tough
And dauntless and strong.
This girl she sings
The most beautiful songs.
This girl will never let you see her cry.
This girl will never answer you why.
This girl she doesn't need wings to fly.
Because this girl ... She is the sky.
You will find her overhead
Every day and every night.
Her sun will warm the hardest heart
And her stars they shine so bright.
If you should ever catch her and open that book
You'd better read as fast as you can.
Standing still in any one place
Is never in her plans.
But, this girl I know isn't running from something
And it's not that she's some bird on a wire.
She isn't blindly running through time, you see
This girl I know ... She has a world to set on fire.
She is just ... like a book.

And yet ... forever changing looks.

Written in the Fall of 2012 about a friend of mine that just means the world to me. I'm too shy, or whatever, to show it to her. With my chronic case of Charlie Brown Syndrome, I am forever in fear that I will be somehow misunderstood. I hope one day, if she ever see's it, that she realizes it is about her.
PLEASE, with all due respect, do NOT tell me to give it to her. If I haven't in 5 years ... I am never going to. That's just me. I PROMISE you that I am THEE most stubborn Aries that you will EVER encounter. My stubbornness has made my family and friends, quite often, call me "The Immovable Object".
