I Used to Know Her...

I used to know her... A girl that was happy.. care free... believed in love...

I used to know her... A girl who just knew guys would grow up to be just like her daddy...

I used to know her... A teenager who trusted a little too easily... who got introduced to "The Game" too early....

I used to know her... A teenager rebelling against the very rules she struggles to establish in her life today...

I used to know her... A young woman struggling to "find herself"... lost amongst the masses...

I used to know her... A young woman who thought she fell in love... but quickly realized she was a Rook & felt like a Pawn... because her Queen was "check" by her King" the whole time... Check... Mate

I used to know her... A young woman who realized all too quickly

that her body could get her what she wanted... but left her begging for what she needed....

Yea... I know her... A woman is constantly writing in her Diary about a Teenage Love Affair, but quickly realizes She's Heard it All Before... She's quick to Break Up to Make Up, because This Bed is So Lonely without You... but she can never face the WoMan in the mirror...

Yea... I know her... A woman who often wants to say a big FUCK YOU to love & everything that goes with it... but her heart can never form the words...

Yea... I know her... A woman who still talks to that little girl waiting for her knight in shining armor...

Yea... I know her... 'Cause that Woman is ME...
