For Amanda

Why should a child be left behind? Left behind to try and fight My niece is small but oh so smart But they want to send her back She is kind and so very wise But is afraid to stand and say I am smart, I want to stay Abused by her father Broken down by the parent that should have protected her And now, I her aunt am here to say fathers like that Should die today! My niece is small and afraid of all ‘cause one who should Have held her dear took away her innocence. I will stand and fight for her. I will hold her so very near and never let her shed a lonely tear again
