She Will Always Wonder Why
She walked around with a smile that hid pain inside
There was no safe place for the tears she cried
At a young age, she had many questions about the world
Locked away in her mind, in confusion that swirled
No-one could give her the answers through the years
Because you can’t fully explain evil, as it falls on deaf ears
Murder mixed with smiles by sick minds who escape
Child abuse, torture and perpetrated child rape
Corruption that leaks from dark drips into pools
That turn into blatant floods, in the face of fools
She may find all her dreams in the sky and try,
But she will always continue to wonder why
