Daddy? Whatever happened to Mama? I heard a bang in the middle of the night, a screeching like when Danny falls off his bike, I heard it fill the air and the stars shone real brightly. I heard Mama gasp as she ran to the window and I runned with her. I watched the lights dance from the ground, all the colours in the rainbow…and more, even more that Mama knew and I didn't. Daddy, why did Mama cry? Why did she press her face to the window as she watched the pretty lights, Daddy, where has Mama gone?

Why did Mama push my hair behind my ears and ask me to go back to bed? Why did she wipe the tears from her face with her sleeve as she looked back out of the window, Daddy, why did Mama say goodbye?

Why did Mama pick me up and put me back to bed? Why did she tuck me in with my Teddies; Harriet, Mickey, Adam, and Captain Jack? Why did she pull my blankie to my nose and not read me a story? Why didn't she tell me of the Doctor and the Tardis? Why did she run and hide?

Daddy, how comes when I tippie-toed down the hallway I saw Mama close the door. Why as I sneaked in the room did she open up the window? Why did she let the cold wind blow into the room and make me chilly? Daddy, why did Mama look down and smile to the dark?

Daddy, whose voice was it I heard? Who did I see wave a shiny blue light? Whose hand reached up to help Mama down? Who kissed her? Cos it wasn't you. Who kissed my Mama?

Daddy, who's the man with the dark hair and the chocolaty eyes? Who's the man who dresses in a suit with a pair of trainers? Who's the man who waved up at me and winked?

Daddy, Who's the man who shouted out Rose?

Daddy, who's the man who took away my Mama? Why did she run through the gardens with him laughing? Why did she kiss me on the head and squeeze my hand? Why did she say she loved me? Why did she ask me to tell you she was sorry? Daddy, where did Mama go?

Daddy, why did the light shine again? Why did the noise fill the air again? Daddy, why did my Mama leave me? Why did my Mama take that special necklace from her neck? Why did she throw her arms around his neck? Daddy, whatever happened to Mama?

Daddy, when will Mama come home? Daddy, where has Mama gone? Daddy, doesn't Mama love me? Daddy, will you stay with me? Will you never leave me? Daddy, where has my Mama gone? And…and…how comes the stars don't shine anymore? How come we are all alone? Why did Mama go?
