Hope In the Distance

Who's that girl?
She has bright eyes
Endless dreams
Ambition erupting from her ears
The world is nothing but beautiful
Everything ugly is simply misunderstood
Naïve, free girl- I miss you
 
Who's that girl?
Her eyes seem sad
She wants to sleep
And not be called upon
If the world would roll over
And never need her again
Maybe she'd get some rest
Tired, tattered girl- I'm so sorry
 
Who's that girl?
Her face is a mystery
I don't know what she wants
Or what would make her happy
I want to imagine she's strong
Another beautiful piece of the world
Standing up to all the fear that would defeat her
Brave, new girl- I look forward to meeting you

Sometimes t is irritating to meet someone but fail to make friends. Strange My next poem which I wrote some time ago is on the same lines, but f course different. An amazing poem.
