By Nidhi Duhan
Let me tell you about the
Ultimate girl next door;
Who is smart before beautiful,
Talented before pretty,
And hard-working before hot.
Whose words echo
Through ceilings,
Starting fires for her dreams.
Whose passion shines
Though the drapes,
And the long hours that she put in
Are just for her sake.
Whose touch is longed for,
As it floats with art and so much more.
She has come ahead of the catcalls,
of “you got the job for your looks”
and “you won’t handle that much pressure
even if you could”.
Let me tell you about the
Ultimate girl next door;
Darling, her curves are more perfect
Than the carvings in your soul.
Her edges so pure,
Defining all the scars along with
The glitters in her bones.
Movies couldn’t define her enough,
Songs couldn’t hold the rhythm of her footsteps.
Honey,
She is the artist.
The boss.
She is the ultimate girl next door.
