Little Girl Inside of Me

Little girl inside of me...
hidden deeply are the memories that I keep...
treasures rekindled of the past...
painted delicately from white to black...
Inside is prison...
I make my home...
bitterness lies...
yet freedom romes...
Salvation comes...
with every pleading prayer...
agony destructs...
leaving dark despair...
My heart weeps...
My soul is dying...
For love, I keep trying...
never knowing when love shall arrive...
I keep this little girl inside.
