The Lost Souls of the World
Little girl with her mothers curls
hears voices in the dark
Little girl with a troubled head
sings the world to sleep
Lost in a window box
she holds still as marble
big sister left me in the shopping cart
left me for the crows, the lost souls of the world
to pillage my body and shred my features
till she hardly knows i’m kin
And every tear that leaves her face will plant a seed
where a flower will grow
under wiped clean gray sky's
sorrow will color every petal.
