Two Faced



I'm a little girl again-
(I pretend)-
Lift the weight of the world
off my shoulders
And then...
Open my eyes
to days that have been-
Open the door to my dreams
and walk in.

I'm a little girl again-
(I pretend)-
I'm back in my blue cotton dress
and then-
swinging slowly at first
until I begin
To touch the clouds with my toes-
With my tongue,
touch the wind.

I'm a little girl again-
(In my mind)-
Where life is soft
and real and kind-
Where I never measure
age or time-
Inside my secret world
I climb.

Then I must come back
and be
the person people
see in me.
So I shut the door
so carefully-

And pretend I'm a woman again...
