what good are a bird's wings if she cannot fly?
what good are a fish's fins if she cannot swim?
what good is her heart if she cannot love?
what good are we as functioning things
if we are not allowed to function?
if we are not allowed to feel and to love,
her heart is fat-full of feelings that she has
for you and only for you
she doesn't want to see you hurt,
but day-to-day she lives with pain in her heart
and a sadness behind her eyes,
an incessant pounding lives permanantly in her head
as your face floods her thoughts
open your eyes and see a girl who loves you,
a girl who would give you the world!
see her hands shake by her side as
she aches to hold you,
see her eyes well up with tears as
she cries at night for you, and
see her lips curl up into the smallest of smiles as
she whispers your name under her breath
