Poem about a forgotten and forsaken girl getting through life alone. |
Gently The wind whips Across the trees As the rain Falls to the cold ground In a hush. Quietly She steps Barefooted Across the wet earth She's alone She's free She's curious. Beauty She seems to be The very essence of it. She captures every eye and keeps it. So beautiful So lovely Yet so very, very lonely. Seems as if She has everything. First glance, One look would tell you so, But at second and third glance You would see She has nothing Has nobody And she's forgotten... She's alone. She steps Gracefully along The wet earth Alone And independent Forgotten And forsaken Left alone To live a life Where darkness reigns all. And she steps. Farther and farther She walks. Trying to escape Trying to just walk Away from it all In hope of finding Some light Some hope A place to rest And someone to lean on. Hush All is quiet Slowly Leaves fall From their perches On the trees Quietly Rain falls from the sky To the ground Her feet touch the earth Hoping for a new beginning And for a new hope. Just wanting to know Compassion Hope And Love. In a world Where darkness reigns Searching for an escape She steps... |
