She kisses the sky,
As she says her prayers at night.
This six year old angel
Is ready to take flight.
Her body isn't as strong as her spirit
Her parent's flushed cheeks don't decieve her
As they refuse to believe it.
But as time ticks and tocks
The whole family holds her hand
And takes one last look at the clock
Her warm eyes go cold,
Her skin left smooth and pale
At only six years old.
