If I picture a thing enough,
Will it come true?
If I loved you enough,
Would you love me too?
See, I know there's power in positive thinking
But I also know
There is a 10 year-old girl in me
Still waiting to become Nancy Drew.
Or Taylor Swift.
Or Princess of Genovia.
But when she looks in the mirror
I'm still here.
I don't remember her often
But looking at you
I feel that small again
One word from you
And I am not enough
Still reaching out
Mouth open, but no words to say
Because you're within arm's reach
But still a world away.
