Raw

Little girl
A Little hurt
Rubbed a little raw inside

No change
She's outraged
Rubbed a lot of stones outside

Wished on stars
Tossed out coins
Pulled on sticks and bones

Played their tricks
The bossy little boys
Now she's washing off scars, and so

Little girl
A Little hurt
Turned a little tough outside

The abuse doesn't stray
She's built of remains
Waiting to thaw, too raw to cry


love you,
love, me

mariel.
