One sould, alone, knew
Knew what would happen
To the world
She could see it
And was scared
This lone child
She had powers
Ones she wish she didn't have
Powers to peer along the timestream
And it frightened her
But she was a good soul
And wanted to save all she could
So she gave people warnings
About upcoming disasters
And they didn't believe
They laughed at her
Scoffing at such crazy notions
What was one girl to say
What would happen
Not believing, not caring
But then things started to happen
To the people she told
Her warning were coming true
And they grew scared
And frightened
They could not understand this girl
With the powers to see beyond
They felt she knew too much
And they grew afraid
People fear what they do not know
Fear grew, swirled
Growing ever larger
They decided the best course of action
Death upon the girl
And they advanced
She saw it coming
But did not resist
So her warnings would end
They would never know
The real disaster ahead
She left a message
Her last one
A letter to those in power
Warning of destruction, chaos
How it could be changed
The leaders received it
Contemplated it
Heard the story from the news
The girl that told the future
The girl that knew too much
But the girl was dead
They could not question her
Just heed her letter
And they looked at each other
And doubted
But one guy
He took action
Changed things around
Averting disaster
But the girl was still dead
She was praised
But no one could revive her
For fear had killed her
Necessity had saved the world
But necessity did not save her
She had sacrificed herself
For the world
So that the world could survive
While she saw her own path end
She was brave
This one girl
Not alone
There are others out there
People that are different
But don't fear them
No, don't fear
Show them the world
Show them this world has changed
That things are better now
And the girl didn't die in vain
