Lonely Girl

She sits alone in her room This pretty little girl with no one to love Tears run swiftly down her cheeks They show anger, frustration And now she feels weak She lays there and thinks about life Feeling stricken with nothing but pain and strife People talk behind her back Leaving her helpless and draining her soul But not a word she utters No emotion does she show Until she gets to her room Nothing but a pillow to hold She thinks of ways to end the pain But knows that it just can't be her end She hides away in her books instead Letting the happy endings sweep her away She drifts along caught in her stories Hoping that one day Prince Charming will come through "Foolish" she thinks to herself, "Prince Charming is only a fairy tale And wishes weren't made for you" This girl feels no hope No out to the things that make her sick She's alone in her room Crying with her nose in a book
