The little girl is crying,
over her poor doll that’s lost,
adults think its a joke,
oh how much does it cost?!
But to the wailing little girl,
it means the world to her and more,
she was a carefree happy child,
life was great before.
The tears are trickling down,
her piercing cries are intense,
she’s desperate for her baby,
to others makes no sense.
to me it seems so petty,
balling over a silly doll,
but really its something more,
for attention that’s her call.
The pitiful girl feels hopeless,
pointless and ignored,
abandoned and alone,
friendless, lost and bored.
There’s an underlying cause,
to her abundant tears,
she feels the pain of an adult,
although so young in years.
Parents, what have you done?
your children are in distress,
you think they don’t understand things,
and their needs you constantly suppress.
They’re smarter than you think,
their cognition is much higher,
wake up, pay attention to their needs,
some care they do require.
