Synopsis: The tragedy of a beautiful and innocent soul caught the attention of the country and the world. We love you, Caylee Anthony.
Angel wings attached to your back upon your disappearance
December of 2008 marked your existence's interference
That's when the nation grew for you an airtight adherence
As people went bonkers trying to clear the incoherence
We wanted nothing but your justice to be a consolidation
But the verdict seemed to offer no sense of consolation
At the time, my thoughts struggled and hit a wall
Nothing could help, not even Chinese exercise chime balls
It struck such a chord since for the kids we're determined
Different beliefs about your exit, but one stays firm and
the concern is dealing with the sadness as it stays current
The way you were found is, in its entirety, abhorrent
I saw your grandparents one time shopping in Walmart
Wanted to offer solace but didn't think that was at all smart
For keeping your memory alive, supporters stay relentless
Every word and line spilled out the heart; I meant this
