REMEMBER HER?
Somewhere inside of you,
there's a little firecracker with her arms folded and a
frown on her face.
She isn't happy about all the times you said no when you
wanted to say yes.
All the times you said yes when you wanted to say no.
She wanted you to buy the ticket.
She wanted you to take the trip.
She definitely wanted you to take that risk,
the one that may have opened a whole new world.
She wants you to remember what it feels like to run to
the sea without a care in the world and splash and laugh
till you ache. To face the day without a fear in your heart
and embrace every opportunity that comes.
She doesn't understand why you won't wear the bikini.
She doesn't understand why you won't eat the cake.
She doesn't understand why you don't let it go.
She definitely doesn't understand why you accept
second best.
Somewhere inside there is a little girl who wonders at the
adult you've become.
She still has so many things she wants to learn and so many
people to meet.
She still has food she'd like to taste and parties she
wants to dance at.
She still has places she wants to visit and wonders she
wants to stare at.
Somewhere inside you, there is a little firecracker,
desperate to see more of this thing we call life.
Go get her, she's fun.
