That Little Girl

In this horrid place

where there are millions of just one face

a single tear can be shed

as some little children try to understand

she was their family and their friend

but she was really good at the game pretend

she was so young and yet so bold

she never did what she was told

the rebel and the crazy child

she always ran wild

why this how did she even know

how could her young life have been so low

she did it no do overs

no more looking for clovers

or playing with or meeting new friends

she ended her game of pretend

ended more than just throwing away a kite

that little girl ended her life.
