POOR LITTLE GIRL

  

A little girl lost, in this heartless world

No one to keep her safe

Running from her shadow

Never finding a safe place

Looking for kindness, only to find pain

Will she ever find someone to love

Could she be happy again

Poor, sad little girl

With no real family to call her own

Tried to find desperately

a house to call a home

Wondering from place to place

making all of the wrong choices

Not wanting to hear her inner spirit

Never listening to the voices

She cried out in desperation

Not knowing how to play the game

Her little babes ripped from her arms

Never to be the same

Years go by but the pain is still there

She took it with her to her grave

What a sad goodbye this will be

 Will anyone remember her name

Please do not worry

for those who do

She has found herself a great love

A love, that is forever true

For a wonderful home

she has finally found

In the arms of our Lord

She rests

safe and sound

Hi Julie

I am very sorry for your loss love! i really am..... I hope it would comfort you to know that she is smiling down on you each day, and is with you in your heart for all eternity. This is a very emotion ridden write, and i could feel the pain, the love and the sadness in your words. "virtual hugs for you" as i am to far away to give you a real one. May she rest in peace and may you find solace in all your memories of the times the two of you spent together. Kind regards Jill Mistakes happen, do not dwell on them, live them, mourn them and move on to better things. (PS: if that does not work eat lots and lots of chocolate)

Thanks

Wolfy! I am really enjoying your writing also. I have lost 2 sisters and words really can't express my pain. The words I do find help me to deal with it. One thing that gives me peace is knowing that someday we will be together again. :)
