Observation From the Sidelines

I once knew a girl who lived
Expressions on a horn she'd blow
Expressions that the world would know
Followed where her heart would go

I once knew a girl who lived
Brash, erratic, like the sea
Dangerous, but scared of thee
She gave all her love to me

I once knew a girl who lived
We grabbed hands and held them tight
Valiantly battled through our plight
But she was lured into the night

I once knew a girl who lived
Who's laughter was infectious
Who's smile was contagious
Lost to the outrageous

I once knew a girl who lived
Who wouldn't ever know it
Who tried her best to love it
Who tried her best to show it

Ode to her bright sorrow.
