The Little Girl


little girl born on a cold winter day as she cries for the warmth of her mother that soft embrace that she longs for her mothers arms are where she feels safe her mothers arms are will she shall stay one place a little girl feels safe is her mothers embrace as the little girl grows her mother grows far away far away for the girls reach a mothers love, her warmth is the little girls strength the girl lives, dreams, and plays with her mothers love while it lasts with age coming rapidly the mother draws from the child the little girl is left left in loneness heart broken lost in the dark though still wanting that love that stops coming still wanting to be told that she is loved still to wants to be held in an embrace the little girl no longer little but in her own sorrow that soon swallows her whole that makes the little girl into a dark place of unloved no more strength she has no longer does she feel loved no longer feels the warmth lost that girl is lost she shall live
