AM I THE ONLY INNOCENT GIRL OUT THERE???


"Bed, bed
I couldn't go to bed.
My head's too light to try to set it down.
Sleep, sleep
I couldn't sleep tonight
Now for all the jewels in the crown!

I could've danced all night
I could've danced all night
And still have begged for more
I could have spread my wings
And done a thousand things
I've never done before.
I'll never know what made it so exciting
Why all at once my heart took flight!
I only know when he
Began to dance with me
I could've danced
Danced, danced
ALL NIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

J'adore Banjo. J'adore tres bien Banjo!!!!! He dances with me! He talks to me!!! He doesn't treat me like an alien from another planet!!!! But..... I'm pretty sure he's taken. I probably should try not to like him so much, but he's so nice to me!!!! He's a good actor, he's in choir, he's the French Club President, and he is HOTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! But I highly doubt that I have a chance at anything more than friendship. Sigh.

I made such a fool out of myself today. Am I the only chaste girl out there, the only girl who still blushes if a guy takes his shirt off? Nothing else, just his shirt. The guys at play change their shirts on the stage, and everybody else just is like, "Whatever. It's just their chest!" while I'm blushing and stuttering and finding a piece of the ground to be fasinated with. Am I absolutely the only one left??

I don't know. It seems so strange! I must be the only girl who actually cares about that kind of thing (note that Zach doesn't do that!). I feel awkward because I feel so childish among the other girls. I don't want to be "experienced!" I want to be innocent, but I feel so stupid!

I guess it'll be okay. I'll think about Zach some more..... SIGH!!!!!!

"Hands touch

Eyes meet

Sudden silence

Sudden heat

Hearts leap in a giddy whirl

He could be that boy

But I'm not that girl

Don't dream too far

Don't lose sight of

Who you are

Don't remember that rush of joy

He could be that boy

But I'm not that girl

Every so often we long to steel

To the land of what might have been

But that doesn't soften the ache we feel

When reality sets back in

Blithe smile

Lithe limb

She who's winsome

She wins him

Gold hair with a gentle curl

That's the girl he chose

And heaven knows

I'm not that girl

Don't wish

Don't start

Wishing only wounds the heart

I wasn't born for the rose and pearl

There's a girl I know

He loves her so

I'm not that girl."
