Who's That Girl Poem by Rashidah Rahman

Who's That Girl

Rating: 5.0


Who's that girl?
Who kept wondering
When will Singapore finally snow
Or if a purple sky will make,
Any difference at all
Call her disillusioned

Who's that girl?
Who thought that sometimes,
People are just angels in disguise
Not yours, perhaps
But to someone else
Call her blunt

Who's that girl?
Who always believed
That everything she saw
Was how its supposed to be
No hidden meaning
No trapped messages
Call her naive

Who's that girl?
Who kept waiting
For her very own secret snowflake
To fall on the palm of her hands
Without it ever melting
Call her dumb

And if you asked,
Who's that girl?
That I've been talking about
For so long

Well,
That girl is me

I loved this one. It seems to me to be the realization of a childhood long lost. Great flow to it.
