Where has that innocent little girl gone to?
I never noticed the day she vanished
I was so caught up with growing up
With the problems
That somehow she was gone

Now i don't seem to find her
But sometimes, when the world is quiet
I can hear her crying

She wants to be set free
Run Around and play Hide-n-Seek
But she is trapped inside of me
Inside this body that changes through time
Who's childhood seems to not matter anymore
To worried about growing up...

What has time done
Where has that little girl gone to?
How did she get lost?
And i wonder...
Will she ever be back?

I Got the Idea when Collen, the leader of creative writing, gave us the topic to write about something lost. And through time i think I've lost my childhood so i wrote about it.
