Little Girls

[poeticdreamz]

She runs her hand across her cheek to wipe away her broken dreams
And no sad songs are written for this little girl
Yet her soft eyes light my way so I can navigate the world
I reside in these dreams
I bask in her fantasies
And all her contemplations seem to revolve around tragedy
She desperately wants to kill herself but you all can't see it
There's so much pain inside her body
That she's forgotten how to heal it
These are the many thoughts of so many little girls
Too bad that we didn't know
That they are the keys to save our world

short yet very effective....this reminds me of another poem I've recently read....the suicide teens man its something else....I'm all about the children....the next generation will be the ones to change this world....for better or worst.....and the way things look now I'm gonna with the latter....but that doesnt mean us poets can't try to make an impact....so this gem is just another piece of the collection we all should be building really

I am gonna have to disagree with UFO on this. I felt that the short length of this didn't benefit from the "quick and concise" nature that some poems are aided by. When I was finished reading, (it was so short, I skipped ahead and read last to first then first line to last =P) I was just struck; Abruptly, like I just ran into a brick wall kind of struck. Harding hit, unpleasant, "um thats it" attitude. I think you could venture off and explore this topic with atleast 4x the amount you have here (include some very nice content) and you have a better piece.
