Raining outside she was dripping with tears,
And a terrible pain matched all of her fears...

I wanted him to talk to me.
I wanted him to care...

Little girl,
Why oh why do you cry...

I put a smile on to brighten the room,
While hoping someone will see soon...

Watching as you slowly died,
Seeing cancer take your life...

Help her find the dictionary,
Help her turn the page...

I hate being judged by a number,
I hate being measured with a scale...

Someday the sun will set for you,
Today its burning bright...

Within four walls,
Beneath an old cover...

I was always afraid to tell you,
How much I truly cared...

As the fire changed colors,
And the flames licked the skies...

Nocturnal night quiet and bleak,
Can't help but wish that you were here to speak...
