look to your right and three chairs down
a little girl with bouncy blonde curls
starring at her grandfather's casket
with her glassy eyes and red face
trembling and scared sitting down on a chair
swinging her short legs freely
with her hair ribbon falling out slightly
everything is going to be okay little one
keep your head up high
don't show me those tears
your too beautiful to have them running down your face
would you be terrified if i came over and hugged you tight?
a stranger with the same glassy eyes as you
