Dreams Weren't Born Yesterday

Talented, they say

She definitely wasn’t born yesterday

wires, ties, pulling teeth

But they can’t see what’s underneath

She wants to make people B E A U T I F U L

But she knows that she must be dutiful

Stay in a job where she makes a living

Or go to school and keep on dreaming

Life they say is worth a day

She can’t believe it’s turned out this way

21 and divorced….

She feels like she’s lost her sorts

a   P A T H    will come they always say

But she still can't see the way

Until someone comes in her life

Who brings her back i n s ide

Where the warmth and safety dwell

She’s here and about to tell

The story that they said she’d say

She wasn’t born yesterday….
