Won't say conquer, for that's for the stonehearted.
Win? No...that's society's way of cramming us in boxes.
Smile...yes, that's what I'll say to you dear girl.
For, your smile will triumph over all.

Span your wings and fly they'll say.
But let's be real, there are no wings or a sky to touch
What you have is that mind that travels and that heart that carefully shelters the will to make anything possible.

You're beautiful they'll say, some might disagree
but the mirror, oh my dear girl, is as much a friend as you would want it to be.
See what you want to see, and see it come to life.

Propriety will be hurled at you like it's everyone's business
You're a girl they'll say.
Do this, do that, wear this, and don't..they'll say.
But you'll know what to do and who to believe.
Because that mirror I talked about...that'll tell you. And she loves you.

And so do I my little girl. I've got you!

Always.
