At Last

A little girl growing up too fast.
Rhine-stone thongs and high class make-up,
Stiletto heels and mini skirts.
~
Daddy�s little girl ain�t so little anymore.
The �once upon a times� are all gone.
No tucking-in, or piggy-backs.
Just a purse and a wad of cash.
~
Mommy�s angel fell from heaven.
Her wings ripped off; the feathers flew.
Rolling with the devils and no one knew.
~
She�s too far gone
She wont come back.
Just look to the stars and
Hope for some slack.
~
Mom�s tried her best,
Dad�s just given up.
But God keeps watching
As she refills her cup.
~
Forgive her now,
She tried so hard.
That party was crazy,
And so was the bar.
~
She wont come home
Not tonight.
The sun has risen.
Its way too bright.
~
The truth will unravel
When the time is right.
What happened to her
Was a dreadful sight.
~
The mourning will come
But this too will pass.
Remember her name
As God�s child at last.

really portrays the sad truth... i am wondering... did the lady die in the end? or did she return to righteous ways?
