Darkness

Sitting in the Darkness
Illuminated by the moon
There is a little girl
Who has grown up way too soon
Sitting in the darkness
Surrounded by her pain
There is a little girl
Who wants to start again
Sitting in the darkness
Filled with deep despair
There is a little girl
Who wishes she was unaware
Sitting in the darkness
Holding tightly to the picture
There is a little girl
Who wonders about her future
Sitting in the darkness
Surrounded by her fear
There is a little girl
Who can’t even cry a tear
Sitting in the darkness
Knowing she’s all alone
There is a little girl
Praying for a peaceful home
Sitting in the darkness
Afraid to go to bed
There is a little girl
Who wishes she was dead
Laying in the darkness
Buried deep into the ground
There is a little girl
Who’s never going to be found
