Dancing Innocence




This is a girl

Without a care in the world

When beauty was a word

And living was fun

 

This is the rain

Pouring down not lightning up

Flooding the yard

And promising the girl a cup of hot coco

 

This is the home

In front of the girl

Where she would grow up

To learn so much

 

This is when dark hair and skin were nothing

Your brothers’ clothes were fun to wear

And unicorns were real

 

This is when

Her skin eyes and hair

Would all lighten

To where she would miss them so much

Was out of mind

 

This is before

Beauty was a life style

Someone would break her heart

And her mother was gone

 

This girl is me
