as a child
As a child
She only sees the good in every little thing
As hell falls on top of her
she pretends she can't tell
As a child she should fear death
As a child she should fear losing someone
As a child she should care
She opens her eyes thanking god for life
She closes her eyes hoping she will see another
As her world falls apart
She holds her little umbrella to the sky
Not letting one little drop hit her
Her grandma calls her a warrior
Her papa calls her stubborn
Her momma calls her a princess
She will not let the rain ruin her shine
She will not let rain wash away her smile
Six months later there is a terrible windstorm her dad throws her mommy down the stairs
A year later, the tree tops break and crash, her dad leaves them
Two years later the rain falls like little flames from hell,her mom's depressed
Three years pass ,there's a tornado that picks up her mommy and takes her from her home,
Ripping away her safety blanket with her,her mom was taken away
Four years later, the storm is passing her around like a beach ball ,
She's in and out of homes
Five years pass,the damage of the broken house is getting fixed ,she goes lives with her grandma
Five and a half years pass ,the unwanted storm acts like a sunny washed up summer day ,
Her mom and dad are back together
Six years later,the storm tries to start but is pushed away ,her dad tries to beat her mom again
Now the storm is over and her mommy is finally safe with her
She closes the umbrella.
What good has it been?
