Dear Lord, I'm only eight years old
and I don't know how to pray...
But there's just a few things that
I really have to say.
My Daddy left us long ago.
but I don't miss him much.
He never cared about me,
we never even touched.
Mommy was out again last night,
she does that alot , you see
She says she has to get away ,
she can't be bothered with me.
Why don't Mommy love me , Lord?
All the other children say
They get lots of hugs and kisses
every single day.
Why don't Mommy love me?
what did I do wrong?
Why won't Mommy play with me?
Lord,it's been so long!
I tried to fix some cereal,
but I spilled milk on the floor...
Mommy screamed and hit me just like a
hundred times before.
Why don't Mommy love me Lord?
is there anything I can do?
If she would hug me just one time,
or simply say.. I Love You.
It's getting dark again , dear Lord,
won't you please stay with me?
I'm so cold and all alone and Lord
I'm so hungry!
The shadows are coming closer,
Lord, Its a long time till the day.
Please stay here and hold my hand,
Lord, PLEASE don't go away!
