I watch as the children sing their songs,

They never realize the good till its gone.

When they whisper in their little voices,

It leaves nothing but little noises.

They never realize that it's all gold for them,

With each passing day,

They play their life away.

But they get older and realize how life really is.

How tough the real world really is.

They finish school and start off to work,

And realize how many people really are a jerk.

The older they get, the more they lose,

And they begin fill in their parents shoes.

They have their own kids now,

And a critter who says meow.

But one day a boy breaks their little girls heart,

And that's when all the fun will start.

They begin to lose their little girl,

She isn't the little ballerina that used to twirl.

The changes she causes goes deeper than just her,

Tension in the family begins to stir.

The little girls blood seeps into the floor,

She leaves and walks out the door.

Her blood stains on the carpet,

And she says her last goodbyes to the world,

Then she pulls the trigger,

Her life could have been so much bigger.

But instead it's reached it's end,

And she had no message to send.
