The Girl Who Lives Everywhere

I see a normal girl
A normal girl on the playground
nothing like you
I don't know her
She doesn't know me
She doesn't even look like you
yet,
when I saw her happy, free face
Excited from the game she was playing
I stopped
Just a normal girl
But as she spins towards me
I get a glance of her face
And just for a second
I see you
and you exactly
I stop and stare
It's all I can do not to yell out your name
Because when I saw her turn towards me
All I could think was you
Like you were back
Back with us
For just that moment
Hopefully, you will be back soon
The real you
Until then
I will watch her
I will watch the girl who lives everywhere
