Unloved

a little labyrinth bore in her eyes
the light simply ripe away with her cry's
afraid and a shame
such a beauty they'd say
she bares there name
from her family astray 
she sat and she'd wait
for something to change 
but there was no date
to reunite thee estranged
restlessly waiting for a mother to care
a cold cruel women who just didn't care
a father so young just wanting to have fun
how could they know all she would wish
was she wouldn't miss
anymore hugs nor a kiss 
the one thing a kid needs and can't live without
a loving home and no doubt
she never got what she wished
however she learned the value of time
as she sat crying  she realized the cost when
love isn't greater than neglect 
and now she doesn't know what to expect
