The swings made her feel like she was flying
A moment of peace, her imagination flowed
A little girl, 8 years old, always in her backyard
She felt like she was on top of the world
Then at 10 she skated around
The house, the block, anywhere she could
Even when she fell, she got back up
Strong little girl, never got hurt
Three years later she disappeared
Never really saw her again
Sadness became something that replaced her
And scars were unable to mend
But a lot of time has passed since then
I got back on the swings and skated around
I felt her there, in my heart
I didn't cry, but felt reminiscent
She is gone, all grown up
And I miss her a lot
But deep down she's still inside
Even when it feels she's gone forever
