A girl knows she's lonely

A girl knows she's lonely
when she holds herself
dreaming of the same things she wanted
when she was twelve.

A girl knows she's lonely
when her mouth says she's lovely
in the dark, a hand on her face
that stroke with a lover's grace.

A girl knows she's lonely
When she stays outside
and mostly observes, only,
the sea of life in every tide.
