Once I was young too...
'A young girl sits,
she is lonely, but doesn't complain - in her heart he is there,
she knows it,
The steps she sits on are hard,
but she does not feel it, for in her heart - he is comforting her,
Her heart is young, flyaway, carefree, nieve,
for she has not yet known the pain - only the pleasure - that love brings,
she is confused, why say things you don't mean ???
It doesn't make sense - what she doesn't know is that nothing does make sense,
sense doesn't even come into it!
She dreamily conjours up a picture of him,
he is dark haired, tall, handsome,
only where is he? Why does he not hold her now , when she is down? Why?
Well their is no answer she concludes, he is but a figment of her childish imagination,
which she will of course, lose, all too soon.'
