When she was four years old,

The bombs started falling,

And the school she would have gone to,

Was no more.

When she was four years old,

And the bombs started falling,

She did not know how to read them,

So, she didn’t know who to hate.

When she was four years old,

And the bombs were exploding,

The buildings she could hide in,

Didn’t last very long.

When she was four years old,

The bombs were falling,

Because she had become

Someone’s enemy.

When she was four years old,

And the bombs got close,

One of them made certain,

That she would always be four years old.

 

Do you know her name?

Me either.

But it seems like that’s important…
