Once upon a time.
I was a little girl
with a bright future ahead
and my hair full of curls.
Somehow in between growing up
and growing old
I wasted my life
and my heart grew cold
One wonders how this could be
how could a bright smiling heart
and my spirit that was free
be separated from my life's start.
People can be cruel
if you are different you see
They don't realize
the nice little girl in me
A tough exterior
to the world I do show
This is my way to survive
the hardships I know
When God's light
comes to take me at life's end
I hope he will see within me
the little girls spirit I'll send.
