Kathleen

Linda was sitting at home,
chatting and surfing the net,
but something was going to happen,
something that made her shiver and sweat.

it was at 2 o'clock at night,
and she went to sleep at three,
suddenly something began to sing,
something that she could not see

suddenly a little girl began to appear,
she was holding a skipping rope,
she began to skip and sing,
suddenly she began to float

the girl began to sing louder
and this is what she sang,
this happened 30 years ago,
but the story is told over and over again

"My Name is Kathleen,
Kathleen Loften,
Kathleen Loften thats me,
I love to skip rope often,"

"I love my life,
I'm full of glee,
i love mummy and daddy,
but i wish they loved me"

Kathleen lowered her head,
and Linda's house changed into Kathleen's,
30 years before Linda was born,
the backyard was the scene

Kathleen began skipping
And skipped to wards her father,
picked a flower from the garden,
and gave it to her mother

suddenly, the father grabbed a plastic bag
and put it over Kathleen's head,
The mother grabbed the skipping rope
tied it around her neck, hung her on the tree and she was dead

Linda jumped at the father
but went right through him,
she tried to stop the mother
but the chances of that were slim.

Linda began to cry and
stared at Kathleen's dead body hanging from the tree
tears trickled down her cheek
she had thought they were a happy family

suddenly the scene disappeared,
and Linda's house was back
Linda fell to the floor
Love is what the parents lacked.

Linda ran outside,
it was just a dream she thought with hope
but then she turned around and saw the tree
on the tree was the skipping rope.
