Why My Little Girl?
I watch my child in her delay
Waiting for speech some day
Holding my heart in her hand
Her mind is slipping through my fingers like sand
She has an emptiness in her eyes
She listens but makes no connection or ties
I feel as if I failed somehow
So what can I do for her now
She is the butterfly in my life
Yet she is all lost in strife
Please tell me why my little girl
Why my precious baby girl?
