there once was a girl

who was filled with

laughter

love

curiosity

kindness

and innocence

her smile was as bright as the sun

her laughter was like a melody from heaven

her eyes twinkled like the stars

her hair danced beautifully with the wind

but then

he came, like a thief in the night

stealing everything

including her precious, lovely heart

and away she went

no more smiles.

no more love.

no more laughing.

no more dancing with the wind.

no more, nada, zero.

she was gone.

and away she went into the darkness

forever.
