A Little Girl's Cries
As night falls and justice sleeps,
This is when a little girl weeps.
Her story buried out of shame,
While violence spreads like a deadly flame.
Wolves bind that innocent with rope,
Stripping her dignity, tearing her hope.
News headlines scream, but hearts stay cold,
This cycle of fear, bitter and bold.
Will we turn away or find a way,
Watching her innocence harshly torn away?
We promise you, we’ll fight,
Bringing forth a new ray of light.
Voices must rise, silence undone—
The only path until this war is won.
Fear in your eyes, we don’t want to see,
We promise to bear this burden, whatever the fee.
