Untangled and Untied

A shy girl she once became
A smile she would try to frame
She was trapped and insecure
She was blank and unsure

Herself she tried to disguise
But you could look behind those blue eyes
Those eyes would never lie
And she would always wonder why

She soon became aware
That she could rip that mask she bares
She knew there was someone out there
She just had to open up and share

She knew she found that someone
Now she knew she was done
Done trying to hide
She became untangled and untied

Years have passed and gone astray
Right beside her you have stayed
You have taught her so many things
And now she's ready to spread her wings

She is no longer insecure
She's strong and reassured
She rips off that ugly mask
Wrenching questions no longer asked

She's going down that straight and narrow path
And she's done with all this math
Goodbyes seem forever and a day
But she will never be too far away
