Only The Girl by Kalikala SmithWould this be any better if I were on my own
surrounded by defeat.
For once in my life I feel like I have grown
but underneath...
You believe all my silly lies
about who I am and who I'll be.
I can't control the faith you have in what you see
I can't make you believe.
I am only the girl you see, hiding behind a lonely smile.
I am only the girl you know, who wants to be lovely once in awhile.
But all I know is to be tough and brave, and to not let my feelings show.
I am only the girl I want to be, inside of me.
I am not perfect.
You just want me to be.
You are so blinded
by the ordinariness that is me. 12/28/2003 Author's Note: a song... unfinished in lyric... finished in thought...
