She was just a kid, wanting to grow up.
This world was cruel, pain made her give up.
She was alone and afraid.
"I just wanna be happier", that's all She knew.
SHE said it's for you,
HE said it's for her,
he said my love is for you.
First was the reason of her scars;
Later was the happiness of hers.
But she wanted wings to fly.
SHE did it for her; they did it for her.
"Isn't it love?" the tears asked;
She found her universe.
She realized she is alone but not lonely,
She has someone to hold on.
Wings grew out of pain, once weakness is now strength.
She chose love over happiness.
I just wanna be happier became just wanna see them happier.
She was just a kid, wanting to grow up.
She was just a kid, the world took away her childhood.
She was just a kid, didn't realize when she grew up.

The sadness says it all.
No childhood, no hope.
Yes it's so true, a good childhood brings the hope and the essence in a person's life but many don't get it.
Heavy message, but sadly true for many. Good job.
Childhood builds the character and the person we are now but many don't get it.
Hope we can make a world which doesn't destroy one's childhood.
Thank you for the appreciation.
You are very welcome.
How some flowers are plucked so so early.
It's sad to see that
