Disclaimer: I don't own Les Miserable
She was just a little girl back then
Not even 5 years old
Her parents died she was an orphange
Homeless and all alone
She had a peice of bread for meal
And looked to sleep the night
It was winter bitter chill
She was filled with fright
The little girl Fantine by name
Saw a child her own age
She seemed to be lost and hungry
She said her name is Paige
"I have only this peice of bread
"To get me through the night
"Why don't we share the bread my friend
"There is no need to fight"
"Thank you," Paige said taking it
"More then words can say"
"My parents are gone," Fantine said, "I'm all alone"
"Mine said they'd return for me someday"
From that day on they were fast friends
And never left each other's side
There was little time for fun and play
They did all they could to survive
A fever one day struck Fantine
Which such a forceful blow
It felt like she would die other there
But Paige nursed her from her whoa
They relied on each other
For 3 years till they were eight
Then one day Paige's parents returned
"I'll miss you Paige," Faintine said, "You're so great"
"Momma and poppa," Paige said
"Please take my friend in too
"She's been so good and kind to me
"She really saw me through"
"What about her own parents?
"I'm sure they miss her so"
"Their soul is in heaven above
"Their body is six feet below"
Without another word
The couple took her in
And that is how you might say
Faintine's life doth begin
