Just a girl waiting
Sleeping beauty rest in peace
Dream sweet dreams
But wake to terror
A kiss from some unknown
a shame upon the family
A burden in my pain
Give me courage, love, and hope
Keep me locked up in my heart
My mind is born of wanting
Of something even more
I’m lost in your protection
I’m smothered by your love
A girl
To hold and cherish
A girl
To marry off
A girl
To bring you a son
The son
You always wanted
The son
You never had
The son
I’ll someday marry
And kids
must many have
Just a girl
To be a wife
To be a mother
To be perfection
You say, “Listen to your heart”
Until it tells me not to be
Just a girl
A Wife
A Mother
I am more than just these three
