A little girl used to sit and ask,

“Daddy why do people have to leave so fast”

What do you mean? He questioned with some fear,

Thinking to himself, she only has one year.

Well god will take us when the time is right,

You’ll get to move on and see a beautiful light.”

He paused for a moment and took a look at her.

He only wished that they would soon have a cure.

She looked up, smiled, grabbed his hand so tight;

Only if he knew that she only had one night.

“Daddy I’ve spoken to the angels, soon to be here,

And daddy when I leave, I don’t wanna’ see one tear.”

His heart dropped to the ground, not knowing what to say,

How could these so called angels come take her away.
