No longer

the young girls

         we used to be

we’ve grown up

    We’ve grown up.

     Trials had scarred us,

tragedies had struck us;

till we are

No longer the same.

       No longer the same.

We will never be the same…

    but because of all that

We are stronger,

we are wiser;

and most importantly—

we still stick together

      although we are apart

—we still stick together

      keeping each other

In the deepness of our hearts

         like those young girls

of yesterday,

Of yesterday.

We remain

       the best of friends

                like those young girls

      of yesterday.
