WomanChild - Cecile McLorin Salvant

WomanChild staggers

A hesitative step

How can they expect a girl to walk in stride

She can’t stand erect without someone beside

WomanChild falters

Clumsy on her feet

Wonderin' where she’ll go

When her time has come

Good she’ll never know

Until she comes undone
