Never Reached Eight
Wrapped in white burial shrouds and only seven
This little girl is now making her way to heaven
The Myanmar junta forces battered her door
Made their way inside all in the name of war
Gun shots were fired and screams were heard
Killing this child is simply downright absurd
What had this child done for them to shoot ?
Killed for certain by an evil callous brute
Imagine the grief of her family left behind
War doesn't solve anything it's time to remind
Rest in peace little lady you died needlessly
Doesn't make any sense that's according to me
