Go

I see her down the road walking Smiling, but there’s no bounce in her step Thinking of her near ones, to herself talking Wishing no one knew the secrets she kept She’s happy and sad, glum and glad As only a woman can be Wonder what’s in her heart, experiences she had Or the sadness of a rendezvous that couldn’t be Her eyes are distant, a glint of tears Which I wish I could change to a smile But I know she’s going to the one’s she loves And it will be worth her while Go to them girl, with a heart as light As a butterfly’s wings can be And come back with memories and stories bright That you can narrate till eternity

This poem has a nice feel to it. As only a woman can be... That makes me laugh.. Was this some poem that was roaming around in your head and you knew you just had to put it on paper?
