Little girl lost,
So near, yet so far,
I couldn’t know how
I was and you are.
Little girl lost,
We two of a kind;
We both never knew,
We both were so blind.
Little girl lost,
Alas you are found,
The worms eat you now
As you lie in the ground.
Little girl lost,
Now you’ve no more fear,
Five years you are gone...
Why am I still here?
