• I sit alone
    always by myself
    in the white room
    waiting for my pills.

    I never see my mommy
    and i never will
    she didn't want me
    and the nurse said she's ill.

    I have lost my sanity,
    so they say
    i am fine though
    but here i stay.

    I don't get many visitors,
    hardly ever..
    when i do
    they come with a needle.

    Why has this happened to me?
    what have i done?
    why did my mommy hate me?
    was i really that bad?

    Look at me...
    im a nine year old girl
    stuck in a institution..
    its no way to live.

    I do have one friend though
    i named him Angel
    because he is my savior
    he is my buddy.

    He has beautiful wings
    with which he sores
    he rides the wind
    and puts hope in my eyes.

    I know i will never leave this place
    i wont ever play outside again.
    my path has been set..
    lonely..i have nothing left.

    I am a nine year old girl
    who has nothing to live for
    you tell me what is wrong
    with that picture.

    As i make this sheet into a
    rope.
    my Angel appears
    at my window.

    If only i was taller..
    maybe i could escape
    but i am to little
    so this is my fate.

    As i knot the makeshift rope
    i think about how lovely it would be to
    touch
    my Angel.

    I put the loop around my neck
    and tie the end to the bed.
    "i wish it was different, Angel
    i wish i was with you instead"

    I jump off the top bunk
    the knot grows tight
    "goodbye my sweet Angel."
    my head is getting light.

    As my vision starts to dim
    i see Angel take flight
    i will be free
    ill be in heaven with Him.
