You Know Who You Are
i have a friend
she dreams of a perfect love
a beautiful castle
and its humorous prince
he would lead her by the hand
twirl her into a dance
sweep her off the feet
and walk her down the aisle
i have this other friend
she keeps her diary safe
imagines a love story
and wishes it is hers
he has this grin on his face
looks straight into her eyes
locks her fingers with his
and mouthes the three little words
he brings her pretty flowers
writes her little poems
strums on his treasured guitar
and keeps her in his thoughts
she knows nothing is perfect
but pretends it doesn’t matter
what is there in the future
to fill her days now with burden
so my dear little friends
my god, you are so strong
you refuse to cry
but raise your head and hang on
you know you will find him there
his hand will reach out to yours
he will keep you safe
from thunder and storm
don’t listen to what others say
it can be so confusing
but who knows your little heart best
who knows exactly what you want?
as i sit by my diary
looking at the withered flowers
i wish you will be alright
with sweet dreams to hold you tight.
