Pause

Filled with overwhelming ugliness.
The forgotten girl. 
The lonely girl. 
She sits on the porch stairs
And keeps looking down the road. 
No one is coming. 
Her straw hair blows in her face. 
Her cheeks burnt by the sun. 
Her shoulders and soul naked. 
No one is there to see. 
The dirt-packed road empty. 
And still she sits. 
Yet the saddest part is
She doesn't even know why she waits.
