Who Will Cry For The Little Girl? Poem by Shaneka Taylor

Who Will Cry For The Little Girl?

Rating: 4.5


Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that sleeps
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that weeps
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that will soon be grown
Who will cry for the little
the little girl who can't make it on her own
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl who sits and stands
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl who watches life in her hands
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that gives
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that lives
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl that sleeps
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl inside of me
Who will cry for the little girl
the little girl who used to be ME! !

as I read this I came up with a response. =] I'm new here...I hope it is liked. no one will cry for the little girl the little girl that sleeps no one will cry for the little girl the little girl that weeps no one will cry because no one is ever sane no one will cry so they find that poor child to blame no one will cry for the little girl the girl that will soon be grown no one will cry for the little girl the little girl that can't make it on her own no one will cry no not one single soul no one will cry she is expected to shed tears of her own no one will cry for the little girl the little girl who sits and stands no one will cry for the little girl the little girl who watches life in her hands no one will cry as she sits and waits no one will cry nobody will open the gates no one will cry for the little girl the little girl that gives no one will cry for the little girl the little girl that lives no one will cry people with their selfish plans no one will cry they don't think they can no one will cry for the little girl the little girl who's gone askew no one will cry for the little girl you say this girl is you so you've grown now you must know the world is selfish humans have grown to be more and more childish never paying attention to those who've become neglected their poor hearts dented who will cry is still unknown but who should cry well sweety it's time to shed tears let go of your fears who will cry...it is you because it is time to start new.
