She is here and she is beautiful.
If only she knew how sweet her face looks.
All the innocence that’s captured in a picture…
She holds within a blank stare.
She is gorgeous and full of life.
And yet somewhere inside I know she hurts.
I can see the loneliness that she attaches to.
See the pain she refuses to let go of.
Knowing for the first time what love is all about
Yet she still looks confused.
Not knowing which path to choose
Still she realizes that all she needs to be is her.
True to herself and no one else.
Sleeping like an angel-who doesn’t know love or pain
And yet I love her.
Never like before do I love her.
Not knowing her thoughts or fears,
Her dreams or wishes,
Hopes and ambitions…
I still love her all the same.
