where are the songs about 
the wrong girl, 
the not-quite-right girl, 
the in-between girl?

we exist.

we tell ourselves that we are 
no one's one-night-stand, 
no one's rebound, 
no one's flavor-of-the-week, 

but
we would give anything to be 
someone's last dance,
someone's first choice,
someone's only hope.

is there so much that is "wrong" with us?

we are flawed.
we are vulnerable, 
we are lonely, 
we are cynical and shy...

but 
we are also proud, 
we are strong, 
we are fearless and exquisite,

and we are worth more than “happily-ever-after.”
