Ripped off my training wheels.
Punctured my wheels.
Tore off the handles.
Hide and seek games.
Lost among the trees.
Never bothering to seek me.
Flying with my fairy wings.
Running with the magic stored in me.
Caught me and clipped me to the wall.
Witnessed me stack my lego blocks.
Kicked it down.
Crushing my castle.
Dancing with the sun.
Watched me sway off beat.
Burned my tutu to ashes.
The wind smiling with my superhero cape.
Locking you away.
But bad guys always break free.
Tag, you're it.
Chasing me away.
Falling every time I try to escape.
Drawing you Father's day cards.
Watched as you crumpled them up.
Tossing me away.

Tore off the handles.

Lost among the trees.
Never bothering to seek me.
Flying with my fairy wings.
Running with the magic stored in me.
Caught me and clipped me to the wall.
Witnessed me stack my lego blocks.
Kicked it down.
Crushing my castle.

Locking you away.
But bad guys always break free.
Tag, you're it.
Chasing me away.
Falling every time I try to escape.
Drawing you Father's day cards.
Watched as you crumpled them up.
Tossing me away.
