Where Is She

Where Is She

When I was younger

I knew a little girl

She ran around

Didn’t mind getting dirty

And she never cried

Just because of a skinned knee

She climbed and fell from trees

And rode a skateboard like an ace

Rugby, football and baseball were her games

And she played every one of them

More than once beating the boys

Still, she was cute as could be

Whether she was in a dress

Or a pair of ripped jeans

She still laughed at everything

I admired her so much

Because of how she lived her life

But, time has passed

The balls of her sports

They changed into high heels

She now keeps her feet on the ground

And she never smiles of laughs

The girl I knew so long ago died with time

But, part of her still remains

Hidden under the thick shell of your life

Let het out in the air

Even if just for a moment

And if you can find a way

She may stay out in the open

And you can once again climb that tree
