I cry for a little girl,
sitting on her grandmothers porch,
in a little yellow sundress,
looking out into an open vast field,
and wishing her name to be know.

I cry for a little girl,
innocense surrounding her,
in tight revealing clothes,
well beyond her years.

I cry for a little girl,
whos been spotted by a predator,
whos going in for the kill.

I cry for a little girl,
sitting in the back of a car,
sweat pouring down her brow,
withno were to turn,
who knows danger is close by.

I cry for a little girl,
who cries out to god,
because shes desperate to find a place to sleep.

I cry for a little girl,
who sits in the dark,
in a lonely world,
way off the path,
who picks up a bottle of pills,
with shaking hands.

But today i cry for a family,
who wears all black,
and mournes for a little girl,
who wanted to grow up too fast.

This was a very good poem about reality in our so called perfect world. Women have to go through some hard things in life, as one myself I have to be careful about everything I do because it could change my life so much.Men don't have to face rape, because men are the ones who rape. But my point is that this poem makes a lot of sense to me becuase there are many cases where girls want to grow up too fast and face the concequences. This was a very touching poem and very beutiful. Keep writing, you are very talented!!!! smiles

I really enjoyed reading this poem. I especially love the last stanza about wanting to grow up too fast, which is sadly so true for so many girls that don't see the dangers of the real world. Great work!
