Girl

In my mind there stands a girl
Beautiful and brave
Kind and intelligent
She is all I wish I could be
All that I think he needs
She is everything I wish for him
A loving wife
A great mother
She stands by him always
Knows just what he needs
She is the perfect woman to raise his family with
That girl is who I want to be
I wish I could be her for him
But I'm just me
A scared girl that never knows the right words
I look in the mirror and see too many flaws
I don't ever think I could be enough
But I have his heart all the same
