The Outside World Wants Me To Have

At Twelve I Looked Like A Girl Of Seventeen. My Body Was Developed And Shapely. I Still Wore The Blue Dress And The Blouse The Orphanage Provided. They Made Me Look Like An Overgrown Lummox.

Beneath The Makeup & Behind The Smile I'm Just The Girl Who Wishes For The World. A Wise Girl Kisses, But Doesn't Love. Listens But Dosen't Believe. And Leaves Before She Is Left. If You Can Make A Girl Laugh - You Can Make Her Do Anything. It's Often Just Enough To Be With Someone. I Don't Need To Touch Them. Not Even Talk. A Feeling Passes Between You Both. You're Not Alone.

I Never Used To Bother With Exercises. Now I Spend At Least 10 Minutes Each Morning Working Out With Small Weights

There Is Just No Comparison Between Having A Dinner Date With A Man And Staying Home Playing Canasta With The Girls.

I Think I Made His Back Feel Better.
