shes always here
sometimes sitting quietly
in the corner
sometimes whispering
in my ear
sometimes grinning
over my shoulder
sometimes crying
frustrated tears
she's always here
sometimes cheering
from the sidelines
sometimes cringing
from behind
sometimes laughing
in my face
sometimes shouting
in the air
she's always here
the girl that I was
the woman
I became
the girl
the woman
the crone
there's something
we all share
she's always here
some might
never see her
sometimes her presence
is fleeting
she's in my thought
my memories
she's everywhere
she is me
don't you see her
the friend
the stranger
the person
I was
I am
I will be
she's always here
