Little Girl walked down the road
Little Girl saw a toad
No warning, no shout
No one did notice, the Little Girl was not about

Not making her rounds at the grocery store
Not in the library, getting books once more
Her parents did worry when they finally saw
The Little Girl no where to be found at all

All the neighbors were suspects and all were cleared
The day the news came, there also were tears
The Little Girl had been gone for a long time
And chances were slim that she was still alive

Her mother fainted, dead to the world
And to her father, it seemed, that the room had swirled
The Little Girl, not found yet
Police found her hair on the swing set

She had not been there the day before
And would not be there furthermore
For little did her mother know
The Little Girl wasn't alive anymore

Two years passed and the phone call came
To her mother and father who had no blame
Her body, dead, found in a field
Beaten and molested, no use to shield

For as long as she lived, her mother was in fear
And every sleepless night nearly ended in tears
For haunted she was by words once said
By her, much younger, back when she was filled with dread

Her life ruled by 5 words, once whispered in fear
"Little Girls Don't Just Disappear"
This might be faulty and I know it is, but this is the raw and uncut version that I havent fixed and the real title is "Little Girls dont just disappear"
