To Every Girl...

What every girl should know [I wrote this for my best friend]

The "sweet" sixteens
And the "beauty" queens
The boy of your dreams
Fell in "love" with
You stand idly by
And try not to cry
But don't worry sweetheart-
You won't die

From being deprived
Of this thorn in your side
While, try as you might,
I know you still can't hide
Your feelings for him
But he's gone on a whim
To meet the next chic
New 'flavor of the week'

But he's not worth your tears
And won't be, no he won't
For at least 50 years
So don't give up hope
'Cause out there, somewhere,
Is a guy who will know
Your favorite line
From your favorite show

And makes you realize later on
That the way you were treated
Was the worst kind of wrong
And show you that you mean so much
But tell you this with the slightest touch
Of his had to your face
And his fingers in your hair
But hold onto him tight
'Cause when he is not there
You'll realize what you've done
And how you lost the only thing
That was ever worth being won.
