I'm Not An Angel

Gazing at the vast starry sky,
Oh, how I wish to leap and fly!

Let me fish out just one star,
and make a wish to break those bars,
that locked me up into a cage,
swelling and dwelling inside is rage.

Turn me loose! Set me free!
I'm not an Angel, I'm just me!
But don't I have the right to live
and yearn for love you seldom give?

I have become more subtle and charming.
But why do you find growing up so alarming?
I'm not a saint- I make mistakes.
I try be your perfect, whatever it takes.

However you set one thing straight. . .

I'm not an Angel, never will be.
I'm just a girl, as you should see.
I can work no magic nor sorcery.
Love me only with certainty.

I'm not an Angel, never will be.
Not until you see me. . .as me.
