The Little Girl
We all have
A princess in our heart
Father the protector
From the start
She’d been hiding
For a long time
Bursting to get out
Not willing to cross the line
Wanting to
Be taken care of
Needing to feel
She was loved
Never to be laughed at
Nor leaning on others
A giver too many
Perfect wife and mother
Many reminded her
Of her human side
Where life is not perfect
Not to run and hide
Most important lesson
The little girl had been taught
The love she needs
Is the love in her heart
She has grown to become
A woman of confidence
Just needs it back
All this to make sense
Make mistakes
Be financially broke
A girl as her best friend
Maybe crack a joke
She can be loyal to all
Trust in others
A good partner
And a great mother
Laugh at herself
Just enjoy life
Smiles on her panties
Not be so uptight
Kids to enjoy
Dreams to come true
Learn to live again
Being true to you know who
