She Wants

Real

She wants to love

Like she’s never been broken

She wants to smile

At the reflection she sees

She wants to rest

In the words that are spoken

She wants to know

Love enveloped in peace

She wants to show

Where the bodies are buried

She wants to know

What it means to be safe

She wants her home

To welcome and embrace

Learning to grow

Without hiding her face

She wants to love

Like the world has no limits

When push comes to shove

Taking what it has to give

She wants to be

Everything that she’s dreamt of

She is the me

That I’m learning to love
