Little Girl Lost

Little girl lost Alone in the dark What she might feel No one will know Thoughts in her head All locked in cages Nowhere to get out No way to run Little girl lost Alone in the dark Curled in a ball With her stuffed cow As she walks with a smile Back straight chin up Not a care in the world As people laugh Little girl lost Feels truly alone Sitting in the corner A tsunami of tears She looks up the number Then fails and calls It rings twice A female voice sounding warm and inviting Says "may I help you" Little girl lost Hangs up the phone She can't talk to anyone She won't She looks up as her mom Comes to the door Saying to her "Why can't you listen" "Clean your room" "You hurt my heart" Little girl lost Waits till she's Alone And the tears start to rain down Moving over The rolling hills Of her face She looks in the mirror She doesn't like what she sees She slaps herself twice As punishment Little girl lost All alone in the world Little girl is lost
