Diary of a Little Girl
Go upstairs, honey
are the words
that haunt the
depths of my brain
still
If only
I would've spoken the one
word so easy to
say
But, no
I scurry to
my room and shut
the door, I'm
tucked safely inside
In the midst of
dreams and the creaks
of the night
The cold ruthless murmur
of death
washes over me
No, I mumble
I have the urge
to slip downstairs
to see Mommy
and Daddy
When my eyes
lay upon the sight
downstairs, a
scream escapes
my chilled lips
Mommy, I whisper
no, no, no, no
is all I say
No, no, no, no
why did I not say
this before
when Daddy urged
me to go upstairs
to my room
Now I must suffer
in this strange, new
home
As my Daddy
sits in prison
my Mommy in
heaven
are the words
that haunt the
depths of my brain
still
If only
I would've spoken the one
word so easy to
say
But, no
I scurry to
my room and shut
the door, I'm
tucked safely inside
In the midst of
dreams and the creaks
of the night
The cold ruthless murmur
of death
washes over me
No, I mumble
I have the urge
to slip downstairs
to see Mommy
and Daddy
When my eyes
lay upon the sight
downstairs, a
scream escapes
my chilled lips
Mommy, I whisper
no, no, no, no
is all I say
No, no, no, no
why did I not say
this before
when Daddy urged
me to go upstairs
to my room
Now I must suffer
in this strange, new
home
As my Daddy
sits in prison
my Mommy in
heaven
