Looking out the window,
watching all the neighborhood kids play,
she envies them,
longs to be outside in the beautiful weather,
playing with her classmates,
not locked away in the house.
Afraid to go outside,
she takes a peep every now & then,
hiding the fact shes living a lie,
pretends she doesn't have a care in the world,
when deep down inside,
she longs for attention,
craves the feeling of love.
Parents barely glance at her,
only give her chores to finish,
screams if they aren't done the correct way,
sent to bed with no dinner,
stomach growling so loud she can't sleep,
slowly slipping away into depression,
she's starting not to care anymore.
Looking out the window,
watching the kids parents,
wishing on the sun that they were hers,
not neglected by two people who could care less,
shes slipping fast,
she doesn't care anymore,
to be alive,
to be dead,
what is life anyways,
she asks herself.
Slipping into depression,
the fake smiles fade less & less,
losing her childish glow,
becoming somebody she never knew she could be,
just wanting to feel love,
needing to hear it just once,
shes giving up on trying,
doesn't care about life anymore.
