soul connection

the barefooted girls in the long yellow skirts
scars down their arms and they look like they hurt
the barefooted girls in the bell bottom jeans
every part of them looks like it bleeds

the girls with the loose hair and long free curls
never again will they dance or they twirl
the girls with the tangles and knots and the waves
all of the days there's more dangers to brave

the girls who are too skinny too fat or too weak
they can say nothing they're much too meek
the girls with nothing but air to hold
they will spend another night in the cold

the girls who have everything but feel like it’s none
they just want it all to be over and done
the girls who feel pain and can never just be
i am all these girls and all these girls are me.
