little girl lost
little girl lost
in a world filled with pain,
wandering aimlessly,
searching for something
unfamiliar,
unknown
don’t know where to look,
don’t know who to trust
no direction, no hope, no peace,
just lost…
-in her heart filled with fear
is there anyone there
to show her the way
a friend,
a stranger,
a lover–perhaps
where are you,
she needs you
she’s lost…
-in the reality called life
depressed and alone
there’s nobody there
to love her,
to cherish her,
to say it’s ok
it’s dark,
it’s cold
she’s so lost…
-in a bottle of pills
red ones and yellow,
orange, purple, blue
a kaleidoscope of colors,
like a dance in the wind
she’s climbs on the rainbow
and drifts away,
to a place that is safe..
-in her dreams filled with joy
dancing and laughing
the bell of the ball,
she’s loved and cherished
her spirit is quenched
free to be free,
free to be loved
alone in her fantasy
no longer lost…
–just gone
