“Young Girl”


Young girl, 14 years old

Young girl, daddy passed away from the spray of an A.K

Young girl, mom only parent she know

Young girl, rocky road

Young girl, older people around.. older she wants to be

Young girl, makes mistakes

Young girl, male figure snatched away

Young girl, teenager growing in a fast world

Young girl, feelings start to feel

Young girl, she feels feelings towards boys

Young girl, she feels feelings towards girls

Young girl, makes mistakes

Young girl, young

Young girl, continue to have faith

Young girl, I love you so much

It kills me to hear some of the B$

I hear

I know it is not fair

Fair is not fair

You made mistakes

You have learned

You let go and move on

You keep your head held high

Young girl, just know I support you each and every step of the way
