Not coming home

by Infected with His Deadly Love   Sep 23, 2007


A little girl, the age of three
Sits on her lonely bed
Her parents left her here
"We will be back" they said

They have been gone
For about an hour or so
She starts to cry now
Do you think her parents know?

She cuddles her teddy tight
He is the only one that cares
He will comfort her tonight
Through the window she stares

Hoping that she will see her parents
Walking to the front door
But they are at a pub
Laying dead on the floor

They are not coming home
But this she does not know
She will wait in her room
Until the police show

    This is so sad...i have tears in my eyes. i loved the emotion and depth you put into this, it made for a very powerful and emotional read. the opening was powerful and from there on it just got more intense...the ending was awesome, filled with such power. beautiful write.
