Sweet Girl

Tounge-tied
With a milk mustache
My inner child blushes
LIke a school girl 
Who believes her cycle 
Will emanate a bad smell
Chin-up little lady
Womanhood has been deemed
Nothing but reproductive
As of yet
Don't be heavy hearted
No one likes a girl who thinks too much
Darken your lashes
Color your lips with red
And don't forget to always smile
Hurry
Do it now
Before Womanhood fades back
Into nonexistence
