she is a happy child
her smile is stained with love and youth
her thoughts bleed freedom and her heart is wild
she takes the world as her playground and searches for truth
along the way she becomes sad and lost
giving into all sins, as humans tend to do
her tears flood her porcelain face and her vision becomes glossed
she cannot see the glories of the universe or the skies that are painted blue
a world she once knew collapses right before her
the pieces scattered infinitely across the floor
the pieces of her life, her dreams and her heart become a blur
she can't remember how to smile or feel the warmth of the place she called home
and it frightens her,
yes, it frightens her.

she is a happy child
her smile is stained with love and youth
her thoughts bleed freedom and her heart is wild
she takes the world as her playground and searches for truth
along the way she becomes sad and lost
giving into all sins, as humans tend to do
her tears flood her porcelain face and her vision becomes glossed
she cannot see the glories of the universe or the skies that are painted blue
a world she once knew collapses right before her
the pieces scattered infinitely across the floor
the pieces of her life, her dreams and her heart become a blur
she can't remember how to smile or feel the warmth of the place she called home
and it frightens her,
yes, it frightens her.
