Once there was a girl

with pig tails who loved to

sing loud to strangers

Once upon a time that girl was

thirteen years old, she had a ponytail,

now and liked to play in the mud

during music class she loved to sing,

but wouldn't anywhere else

As the years grew on

she developed a crush

on the school quaterback,

and her was never up anymore,

When she sang at the school talent show

she was booed, and pushed off the edge of the stage

At the hospital, was where he saved her

from pulling that god damn knife across her angel skin

he wasn't much

just her crush

everything was getting better,

but about six months later

he found her in her room

wearing her best dress with a note

and a thousand rose petals surrounding her

she explained how it was all to much and she just couldn't go on,

and at her funeral by his request

they put the razor where she would

forever live loved

so that's why when you go to

god's church in the that small town

on the altar is a small razor next to the words

IN GOD WE BLESS
