Little Girl

Hey little girl, little girl
Cover up your scars
You wouldn't want anyone
To know who you really are

Little girl, little girl
Paint on a grin
Go on to school
And let the game begin

Little girl, little girl
Giggle and laugh
Take it all in
And enjoy it while it lasts

Little girl, little girl
The last bell is ringing
It's time to go home
So there will be no more singing

Little girl, little girl
Walk with your head low
You're on your way home
But you don't want to go

Little girl, little girl
You're on your front steps
You've reached the brinks of hell
Only a few steps left

Little girl, little girl
Suprise, suprise
You're parents are fighting
You can't always live a lie

Little girl, little girl
Ease open the door
Sneak in quietly
And stare at the floor

Little girl, little girl
You're daddy bellows loud
And before you know it
You're knocked to the ground

Little girl, little girl
You shut your eyes
Maybe if you can't see him
You'll feel alive

Little girl, little girl
You're finally free
He hit you too much
Now you can fly to heaven
Where you're meant to be

Little girl, little girl
Walking on streets of gold
You won't be forgotten
You're story will be told

    This piece, the story behind it was quite sad to tell you the truth. The repetition of "Little girl, little girl" I didn't really like it just didn't seem to sound right to me but thats only my personal opinion. The other thing that through me off was all your stanzas have 4 lines except one which had 5 that reuined the flow in that spot.
    Overall a 4/5. Not too bad. ~Mel

    Amazing job, you have alot of talent. The repetition in this poem made it so much stronger and it flowed so well. And the imagery in away was very strong. Like I could actually picture that...it was a great piece of work!
