Mumble grumble discontent
You rage war against your innocence
You're just a babe but still hell bent
Destroying power on age immense
You are but nine years on this earth
Still pushing boundaries
To gauge your worth
You try to be older than you are
The growing years stretch on too far
To me, you're still my little girl
So you'll keep wearing pretty dresses
And I'll still tuck you in bed at night
After brushing your long child's tresses
