The Small Town Girl

But I have always been the
walk-under-the-neon-lights-on-a-breezy-silent-night;

I can never be the
dancing-away-intoxicated-in-the-mad-crowd-at-the-pub.

I have always been
breathe-the-sight kind of girl;

I will never get used to
run-or-the-car-will-hit-you girl.

I have always been dodging controversies,
and I thought Life was so hard;
but I have realized that it's easier than
dodging the 8am traffic on a 10-lane road.

I will and I wish to stay the
small town girl that I have always been.
I will never be the
high heeled metro chic.

I don't want to lose myself in the rush;
Because I have always wanted to find myself between breaths.
