Only sixteen, she cashiered at a drugstore
\nIn Burlington, Massachusetts after school.
\nHer sweet uncommonly pretty look enthralled.
\nHer voice, soft as cotton candy, mesmerized
\nI would have liked to have gotten to know her
\nBut cruel Fate took her life at only sixteen
\nCrossing the street in front of the drugstore
\nA reckless driver and her life was over
\nSo unfair on this earth so many die young
\nAnd often suffer senseless terrible deaths
\nIt saddens my heart and makes me wonder why
\nSo many lives are cut short in awful ways
\nMaybe just random deaths in this crapshoot world.<\/p>\n
