Little Girl curled up in a corner,
She is scared and alone.
Tears are running down her face,
No one to turn to, nowhere to go.
Little Girl full of bruises, cuts, and scars,
Wondering what she did wrong.
Mother in the kitchen baking a pie,
Acting unaware of what what she has done.
Little Girl unsure of what's next,
Afraid to move a muscle, afraid to make a sound.
She covers her face, scared of what's to come,
As Mother comes in, eyes filled with rage.
"Little Girl look at what you have done!
When will you ever learn?
Go clean up, put on your dress,
Your father will be home soon."
Little Girl loves her daddy very much,
And he loves her in a very special way.
Every night behind closed doors,
He shows her just how much he cares.
Little Girl curled up under her covers,
Longing for someone to hold her.
She hurts all over, her mind is numb,
And through silent tears she says...
"Little Girl, I'm just a Little Girl."
As she drifts off to sleep.
