Little Girl No-Name

In the shadows of others
Unseen by all who pass

A lonely little girl sleeps
With a broken heart

She longs for love
A little girl who bares no name

Forgotten by the world
Many people stare with disgust

Dressed in rages
And starving for a month

She lays on the sidewalk
Not moving or making a sound

She dreams a never ending dream
Reunited with her family

In peace at last
