Little girl

A little girl
So beautiful and brave
She’s a good girl
Does what she’s told
She never let people see
What she feels inside
She laugh and smile
While inside she’s falling apart

At night she just sits and waits
For what she know is going to happen
She waits
She just sit and wait
For the yelling
The beating
The harsh words
She just wait

You can hear the desperate cries
You can hear the fear in this little girl’s voice
The helplessness
Just hoping
Hoping for someone
Or something to save her

As darkness falls
The crying fades
Slowly
Fading as the light
Darkness
Silence
Once again

But this time
This girl is forever silenced
Never again will her desperate cries be heard in the night
This time nothing saved her
This little girl is gone
Forever…

Unfortunately this is the sad comment on the abuse that goes on in our society. You brought out that very well.
