The Lost Little Girl

I know this girl,
you see
she use to live inside of me

she dreamed big dreams
of goin away to beautiful places
and meeting the most interesting people

as a little girl
she use to sit in her bed at night
and plan out this perfect life

she had everything figured out
every last little detail
she knew what she wanted from life

but this little girl is lost...
she lives in a body not her own
she slowly watched herself turn into someone else

now, she's just an empty soul
reaching out for something to hold on to

she screams out for help
but her voice is a language
no one else understands

she'll sit and cry all day long
but her tears are invisible to everyone else

no one understands her
hell........no one even notices her anymore

slowly, she's slipping away
from everyone and everything
she has no one........has nothing

she's tried so hard for so long
but her time has run out
she is no longer need here,
no longer wanted here


this lost little girl is saying
........Goodbye........
