What Happened

No hair, wide eyes

she is alive

and no one knows what will happen yet

Whispy hair, bright eyes

she is young

and she imagined what could happen next

red hair, fiery eyes

she is fun

and she can tell the world what is sure to happen

blonde hair, blue eyes

she is superficial

and she thinks what they think must happen

brown hair, blue eyes

she is in love

maybe it won't last, but she won't forget it happened

brown hair, brown eyes

she is quiet

and no one knows what happened

black hair, dark deep eyes

she is strong

no matter what will happen

white hair, old eyes

she is wise

they ask her what happened

no hair, no eyes

she is nothing but bones

and her grave says when and where it happened

she will always remember what happened

no hair, no eyes, no bones, no lives

she is no longer real, no longer alive

no one listened, nothing happened
