Golden Sunshine

Girl, you walked right in
Throwing wide open
Doors of my heavy heart
Lightening it with your laugh

Girl, you walked right in
Without an invite
No ringing bells
You barged in straight

Girl, like the golden sunshine
Passing through the sheer white curtain
Waking me up from deep slumber
Squinting my eyes with brightness

Girl, you breeze through life
With a naughty delight
Savouring all that’s nice
And spreading joy around

Girl, don’t grow up please
It’s a choice you can make
Just be the way you are
Not letting life break you

Girl, even when you pout and sulk
And throw nasty tantrums
I stifle my smile, look serious
You may never know why

Girl, you’re a dear little friend
Queen of drama
Princess of hearts
When you feel sad, so do I

Girl, just be the drop
Of golden sunshine
Just breeze through life
Spreading a warm glow around
