A Version Of Me

image

There’s a little of what I know

out there in the world.

I’m not the shining star

people think of when they see you.

A version of what they knew

is something to reconsider

when it comes down to change.

Red wine spilled on the floor.

Showing what comes naturally.

And something is different,

bold, and stronger than a drug.

Never spoken to anyone

about our love but I guess

It’s dangerous to be hopeful

as a woman these days.

It’ll be better if I were

soft spoken and useless.

I wanted nothing more

than to be with someone

who loves me truly.

What do I have to gain?

What do I have to feel?

Am I just a robot

who has to feel ashamed?

Nothing is ever wrong

to feel like you don’t belong.

I felt like a sinner

all my life but with him

things are different.

He makes me feel

like a princess

without a crown.
