Afraid

No one knows how scared she really is
A small little girl deep inside
Hiding underneath the blankets from the boogieman

Her heart aches when all alone
Apathetic and empty
Her eyes show tears that won't fall
Empty and lonely

Afriad of the world ahead
Getting hurt
Losing all
No one is really there to her
She holds on tight but they let go
Leaving her behind

A scared little girl
Curled up into a ball
Silent tears falling down her face
Her heart, her mind
Thriving in pain
Screaming out
So someone would stay

Just a scared little girl
Left inside this shell
I cry and cry and cry
No one here to grab my hand and take me away

I'm just a little girl
Crying inside myself...
