Little girl kisses her mum before school
As she hops through the gates to her class
She smiles and greets everyone with a jolly “hello”
Enthusiastic as she looks forward to her day
Thinking today will be the day i finally make a friend
Little girl kisses her mum goodnight
Tells her “i love you”
But she cries all alone
As she sits up on her bed in the dark of the night
Staining her pillow
Closing her eyes
As she dreams of a better life
A life where she has friends
A life were other kids like her
A life where kids don’t think she is weird or awkward
She is all alone
All that she wants
Is someone to like her…

Thats something we all want in this life…….. to be liked.
It starts so light and airy but descends into the despair of a young child.
It really does, and if it does not get better as she grows up then she will spend her whole life feeling lonely.. which is very sad..thanx for your comment.. 🙂
The graphic for his poem is very powerful. Makes me imagine the little girl all grown up and still lonely. Beautiful poem.
yeah, the loneliness never goes away.. thats how i would imagine the girl all grown up and still crying herself to sleep each night..im glad u enjoyed it. 🙂
Thank you so much for this sensitive poem. It makes me want to go find the nearest little girl , hug and love her, be her friend. 🙂
im glad you enjoyed it. :-D….and thats the exact feeling i hoped to make people feel.. most of the times little girls are too scared to ask for a hug or to tell their parents they dont have any friends..
haunting poem. btw, do you make the graphics yourself? all the photos are great.
lol.. i wish i could take credit for them.. i find a pic and do a bit of retouching.. 🙂 glad you enjoyed the poem though..
I think you captured perfectly the isolation that many children feel. While some can make friends easily others for whatever reason can not but no child should ever feel alone and lonely. We must teach our own children to reach out to those kids who may appear different or are isolated so that no little girl ever goes home and crys herself to sleep at night for not having friends. Thank you for posting this. Beautiful.
thank you for reading it. 🙂 i just felt that i needed to show that not every little girl fits in easily like most people think. 🙂
Great poem. =] It makes me imagine the backstory of this child and realize that we all have been through some form of this. I guess that’s why it actually intrigues me.
im glad you find it intriguing, it is true, we all go through something like this somehow and somepart in our lives..
This is such a great piece. I love how you have written this poem: how it descends into something darker and sadder. The description of isolation and neglect through the example of the young girl was very touching and perfectly handled. The topic you have tackled in this poem is unique and sad. I liked the way you tackled it though. Very beautiful and well-written poem 🙂
Thank you so much.. im glad you saw it the way i intended it to be seen.. hope you will come back.. 😀
Little girls are the most precious things in the world.. i hope no1 ever goes through anything like this..thank you so much for this.. 🙂
I agree with you, if anyone ever did such a thing to my lil girl or to my sister or someone i care about, i would make sure they pay..lol.. 🙂
My heart goes out to the lonely child.
Children need to be protected and cherished to give them the confidence to face the world.
You are so right, it seems to me nowdays kids are not given the love,care and protection that they require to grow up confident and happy.. it just saddens me..
