A Little Goodbye

Tears fall down like rain,
Born from unspeakable pain.
No matter what she does, how hard she tries;
All she gets is a bunch of lies.
All she wants, all she needs;
Is to be loved, to be free.
Can someone save this little girl,
Can someone fix her broken world?
And as she dies inside,
She whispers a little goodbye.

Beautiful and full of so much sorrow... Sometimes you have to save yourself instead of waiting to be saved... I mean who knows what you need better than you? Great write and hang in there.

God's love in this world is so much needed today. And is rejected like it is the plague, rather than the ego personas of the mind. Hate and greed breeds more hate and greed. It is my hope that your write and others like it will help draw attention to this illusion of humanity's mind. God bless, Sincerely, Love, Moses

Your poem echoes the multitude of the little voices of small children, of our broken world today. Voices of abused children of broken marriages, of parents who just aren't ready to be parents. And adults who are perverted, from their own past, perverted experience, so on and so forth. It is a perverted mind experience that new born babys are born into in this day. It is up to humanity as a whole to change the mind sets of this generation, if there is to be a change for the better in this world.
