She sits on a throne of expectations
A giver of frustrations
"Be stronger"
"Be smarter"
"Be prettier"
They tell her
She rules her life, but her insecurities have all the power
She is queen in her own right
And no one can have her
But she still stumbles
And trips and tumbles
Her family is there
To pick her up when it's too hard to bear
Ringlets of brown
Hold her envied crown
But she deserves it
After all, she worked for it
Eyes of blue
(The prettiest hue)
Hold her hurt, her sadness, and pain,
And show she got up again
