She Lives.

She lives
The curly-haired little girl
So happy, so care-free
An innocent soul
Wandering, observing
Excited by all things
A free spirit
Overjoyed to sing, to shout,
To dance in the streets not caring if anyone’s watching
A joyous being
Smiling in this moment
In every moment, right here and right now
// everything changed //
She grew up
Her innocence taken
Her life changed forever
Pain and tears
Broken hearts
Broken by friends
A smile removed
Tarnished from the pain of life
Test after test after test
A tired heart
Eyes so weary
A soul exhausted from the struggle
//everything changed//
Acceptance and forgiveness
A new path
Small steps towards moving on
A light switched on
Wounds became scars
She smiled again
At home anywhere
No friends, no enemies
All equals in her eyes
A whole new world
In a world so beautiful
The little girl lives on
