My Little Runaway (Part 1)

At the young age of fifteen years,
She slipped into the night,
Not a note was ever found,
Nothing seemed to be right.

No angry words were spoken,
Only love did they ever share,
Two loving folks with their child,
Now left to shed lost tears.

Where could she have gone,
Rumours said she had gone wild,
To the streets she turned tricks,
This innocent, loving child.

They searched the streets,
But now they lived in fear,
The loss of their dear child,
They lived each day with fear.

 They say she was a runaway,
But that must be a lie,
For one so loved as this child,
Would make them question why.

The years went quickly by,
They heard she had a child,
That she had married and settled,
If only for awhile.

She found a man who loved her,
Forgave her for her life,
Loved her and their child,
He took her as his wife.
