Pink Heels
There is a girl in pink heels
 Staring, judging, scaring me
 Hair hanging down like a lions mane
 She has it all
 The boys stop and stare
 But never really see her
 She often dreams of a world
 Where she can be anything
 Not just what the boys want her to be
 She wants to be a savior,
 A writer, a dreamer
 She wants to be someone
 Someone important
 Not just a beautiful body
 This girl in the pink heels
 Stays up all night
 Not “tweeting” or “texting”
 Not writing her life story on Myspace
 But she studies
 She studies for tests a week away
 This girl in the pink heels
 Stares, but sees nothing 
 For this girl is not real
 She is but an imagination
 She is the girl you want to be
 But, yet, she is an unrealistic one
 For this girl lives today
 Just in a smaller form
 We call them children
 This girl
 The one in the pink heels
