there was this girl
she was quick to laugh
always smiling
full of dreams and hope
overflowing with love
she cared so deeply
was brimming with joy
her eyes were pure light
sunshine leaked from her soul
mesmerizing all who were near
she was a sun, a star
the centre of a universe
a beautiful being

i look at her
with tears in my eyes
envious of all she was
because what you don't know is

she used to be me
