Little, Lost, and Lonely

 Poor little girl,
Alone in your room,
Little, lost and lonely.
Your body is a woman,
But your mind never grew
Past those days on the playground
Alone.

Poor little girl,
Alone in the world,
Facing the demons you don't want to face.
You angered them willingly,
But when the time comes to pay
All you can do is run.

Poor little girl,
Your mother forgets you,
Though she loved you, once, long ago.
You watch as she slips
Like sand through your fingers,
As her memory departs for the unknown.

Poor little girl,
Nobody remembers you,
Especially not the ones who knew you.
So many are out there
Living lives of success,
But none of them dare speak your name. 

Poor little girl,
On the playground alone,
Waiting for someone to play.
Everyone else is busy
With the life you won't have,
A life that you know you should want.

Poor little girl,
Alone in your room,
Little, lost and lonely.
They say that with effort,
You'd change for the better,
But they can't see how hard you've tried.

You were born that day,
On the playground alone,
The day you realized that nobody sees
A poor little girl,
On the playground alone,

Little, lost, and lonely.
