"girls"

yes, i get that i am confusing
on several levels.

i would rather move boulders
than kick pebbles.

i like drinking from a clear
glass rather than coloured.

i am just a child, there are many i have somewhat mothered.

although i am young, i remain
growing old.

you see me, "oh timid!" no,
eager and bold!

not "just a girl."
someone who can
shake your world.
