Not Forever, No
she's still looking up at the sky
it's been seventeen years coming
and all she's ever done is try
until the pain was mind-numbing
to always wait
such is her fate
but still she refuses to cry
it will be her unbecoming
she speaks, a lie after a lie
and she is far from succumbing
she will not fail
she can prevail
