Sad story of a child who wanted a different Life.

There was a child who wanted a life that couldn't be lived.
She dreamed of a perfect family who cared for each other.

Her father a drunk and her mom always felt unsafe.
Brothers and sisters that counted up to eleven.

Always in the middle between the big ones and little ones.
She grew up with a lot of hurt and fear.

Her heart is still very, very sad inside.
But she pretends to be happy on the outside.

One day she will find her perfect family.
And be very happy inside and out.
