And I need to practice my dancing, oh please, daddy, please

She spins and she sways to whatever song plays without a care in the world...

The life every girl wants to live-
A good relationship with both parents.
A relationship with the Lord that is stronger than anything in the world.
A perfect size 2 body.
A best friend who listens to her pointless drama whenever she needs her.
A dream and goal.
The boy with brown hair, chocolate brown eyes, soft freckles on the bridge of his nose, tan skin that glows when wearing light blue shirts. The boy she can't help but smile when thinking about. The boy that she wishes time would stop when they are together. The boy whom she dreams about in the middle of the night. The boy who is already a good friend. The boy she thinks is adorable for liking fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and grape kool-aid. The boy who makes her laugh when she is in the worst mood. The boy who she wishes about kissing his sweet lips. The boy she will spend hours in the kitchen making yummy goodies for because she lost a bet. The boy's sweatshirt she wishes to wear one day. The boy she pictures when she hears funny, cute, or bowl. It's that boy that she wonders if he will ever come into her life.


And now he is here. His name is D. She is completely entranced by him and he has no idea. Every wish on those shooting stars, the eyelashes, the 11:11s, the birthday candles is not coming true. At night, she wonders if this is right. Why can't he see she likes him?  She is trying so hard not to give up but she doesn't know how much longer she can with stand the pain.
