Could This be Real?

Another day, another picture taken

This little girl, can you see the pain?

The light in her eyes gets brighter

All the torment slowly begins heal

Her smile seems genuine again today

Laughing in to the phone she clutches

She blushes sheepishly. Undetected.

His voice sooths her tired mind

Thoughts of his touch warm her body

He makes her feel special inside

Unlike ever before, this is new to her

She smiles more and more these days

Instilling hope into her broken heart

She sighs replacing the phone to the wall

Amazed at how she is now feeling

Lying back on the pillow, eyes closed

She thinks: Could this actually be real?

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Amazing how he makes me feel. Hard to believe. Can this actually be real?
