What happened to that girl?


(poems go here) What happened to that girl who was so quiet and so meek, although she was young she was very very sweet. I saw her at church her family knew mine, and she had a sister who was just as kind. Wha happened to that girl who stopped coming to church, she just up and left leaving everyone hurt. What's happening to that girl I just saw her today, haven't seen her in years and she's changed in every way. Her atitude is defensive, her mouth is runnin' wild, what happened to that girl I knew as a child. I reached out my hand she looks at it and stares, what's wrong with you girl don't know that I care. Your caught in your hole your stuck in a pit, take my hand i'm trying to pull you out of this shit. What happened to that girl that I once knew, What's happeningto that girl the rumors can't be true. What will happen to that girl, hmph, I can't say, but next time I see her I hope she looks better than she did today.

I wrote this poem about a girl in my high school, she had been having a rough life lately and this was how I wanted to respond in my own words.
