I watched a girl,
who sat behind me in class.
She was never happy,
she never seemed to laugh.
She was alone,
always said bittersweet lies.
But i saw something that day,
something sparkle in her eyes.
Her smile was pasted,
it seemed genuinely true.
Everyone thought she was fine,
but only i knew.
I followed her home,
made sure she was alright.
I left her at her door,
then stayed outside her window all night.
I saw the knife,
I saw the gun.
That was when i knew,
it was time to run.
Run to the girl,
who caught my eye.
The first time i saw her,
And she told me that lie.
I grabbed her arm,
she started to yell.
I let her go,
Then brought out my cell.
I called the police,
asked them to come right away.
to save my girl
from this sad sad day.
One year later,
I stood before her grave.
I laid down a final rose,
and my heart naturally forgave.
No more wishing,
no more tears.
My girl is finally happy,
after all these years.
