Becoming
These are my sidewalks

They wounds around the neighborhood

Always led me straight and safely home

But now they're uneven

Cause roots move beneath them

And time won't leave well enough alone

And I had been trying to smooth these stones

Thought I could make my way alone

I tried the whimsical

Gauzy pink dresses

That spin in the wind when you twirl

But somehow the princess gown

Never did fit this girl

So I fled the garden for the tower

And I had been hiding behind these stones

Thought I'd be well enough alone

Then you came nearer

You held the mirror

I saw myself there in your eyes

And I had been running

Still you pursued

I watched you move each heavy stone

The thorns around me torn our skin

But you kept coming through

Cause you won't leave well enough alone

I am becoming what I once was

The girl in the mirror of your love

I am becoming, your love becomes me
