She Found Herself
Once upon reality, a girl shed a tear for fear she would be alone;
Every fairy tale told her that, to be fulfilled, she needed her man.
Yet, day after day, as she tried to attract a guy, she felt dejected;
During a school dance, she remained home alone with her tub of ice cream.
Finally, the dreamy day arrived... dinner, a movie, an ice cream date;
She found that she felt she had to act how he wanted.
As she sat in her bed, she found she'd been hiding who she was deep down inside;
she attended the next dance with her best friend... dancing, smiling, enjoying ice cream, too.
Once upon reality, a girl truly found who she really was and her life took flight.
