She's sitting beside the window And watching the falling rain; Days turn into weeks, life passes by, And she is alone again. Nobody remembers she's still alive, But she is not even ten. She's listening to all feeble voices within, To misery and pain she will never give in. In lonely tears she tries to forgive... In years she'll have just one reason to live. But she knows that's worth it... The world is so cruel... No one knows she cries. If somebody saw, they would never care why. Her dreams and the world will be always apart. And no one will put back the shards of her heart. She's listening to all feeble voices within, To misery and pain she will never give in. In lonely tears she tries to forgive... In years she'll have just one reason to live. But she knows that's worth it... She wakes up with fear to meet the new day, She already knows it will bring just more pain. But no one cares, no one understands - She puts on the mask, trying hard to pretend. I close my eyes and through years I see That girl near the window is ten year old me. She never lost hope and the wish to forgive, And now she has that one reason to live. And this reason is you. |

A Beautiful Disaster, I like this loads. I've seen this in a kid. My oldest daughter. She's an artist too. Now she's also and excellent wife and mother. Bobby |

Alot of kids grow up like this, only many give up on life too soon... I am glad you didn't. Because eventually things turn around if you want them too... if try real hard, life can turn around for you. |
