Where's the Little Girl
Where's the little girl?…by Jessie 3/o4
I’ll pose a question hard to hear
with an answer not in sight
A question asked by a little girl
at bed time every night
How can a father give a life
then take it all away?
But that's what happened to that girl
one dark and troubling day
Her father looked into her eyes
and that little girl looked back
But emptiness was in her eyes
right after her attack
Somewhere deep inside the shell
that little girl dwells
Trying to hide, away from him
and her living hell
She crawled within her heart and mind
Trying to get away
But no matter how deep she went
The memory was there to stay
Trust and love was taken
Half a girl remained
Now she lives that dreadful time
Every day in pain
What exactly happened,
There is no need to know
Just the fact it cause this pain
That continues to grow and grow
Making up excuses
Just to get her by
Whatever happened to that little girl
Peering through those eyes?
This is the story of a girl I knew
