I want a cream braided sweater girl
keeping warm by the fire
A good book in hand, her mind lost in it.
But not too lost to point out that I haven't read any of mine in the past ten minutes.
She occupies my mind instead.
I want a think-for-myself girl
who speaks her mind
but says more with silent eyes.
We're all ignorant sometimes, but we can all find out when and learn from it.
She'd be willing to learn with me.
I want a window to the soul girl
She's seen the best and worst
But wasn't hardened.
She'd go through each side of life with me,
and we'd come through all the better for it.
