"Giving you My Heart" Painting

"Giving You My Heart" Written by Salkis Re As a little girl, I could make mistakes and never feel bad inside. I could fumble the ball or fail a test and still keep all of my pride. / I could walk outside with disheveled hair, and not bear any shame. I could do air twirls, trip and fall to my knees, and they would all rush to my aid. / Could say no to sharing my candy today, and still keep all of my friends, or play secluded in my backyard without missing any of them.. / I could be a princess, on a rickety throne, for everyone to see. And I'd be hard pressed to hear someone else tell me that could never be. / The mud pies always baked to perfection, the slugs can't outrun the salt. Discrepancies can and will insue but none need claim their the fault. / We solve problems with Italian Icies and salty Chico Sticks. We'd play dress up like our mommies and smoke Candy Cigarettes. / Wear out our jaws with caramel Sugar Daddy's and script our dislike for boys. And at sunset, we'd plan the next day before the street lights came on. / Now it's a big deal to make mistakes or go out with messy hair. Hard pressed to find people to care till they think you have something to share. / I miss those days when I wasn't afraid to openly state my dreams. When I could wake up to so much love and see it even in my sleep. / When if I gave you all I had it would not be picked apart. No stomping about nor ignored, or need to buy back my heart. ~Salkis Re
