sitting on the side walk, <br />waving at the camera saying, <br />' look daddy, I'm drawing with chalk! ' <br />A happy lilt 3 year old girl <br />With no care in the world. <br /> <br />Sitting on the bus, <br />first day of first grade saying, <br />' look mommy, I'm a big girl now! ' <br />A happy lilt 6 year old girl <br />Only thing on her mind was what was in her lunch box. <br /> <br />Sitting at the kitchen table saying <br />look daddy, I made your favorite pie, and mommy helped! ' <br />A happy lil 9 year old girl <br />Feeling good about herself by making her dad smile. <br /> <br />Sitting on the grass looking up at the stars saying <br />' why did i run away? i doubt my parents will ever care! ' <br />A little 12 year old girl <br />ending up going home... to her parents sleeping and not caring <br /> <br />Sitting in her bedroom watching the videos of when she was 3 saying <br />' my parents did love me at one point, now they think I'm a bad kid ' <br />an upset 15 year old girl. <br />Knowing her life has changed completely <br /> <br />Who knows where she'll be sitting next, maybe saying <br />' that's it, I can't take this anymore. ' <br />an upset girl, with a knife in one hand and a note in the other. <br />Knowing she'll be better off not here.....<br /><br />Stephanie MIller<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/sitting-wondering/
