For an ancient soul I feel I have known through many lifetimes
There Was a Young Girl
Once, long ago,
In a place far away
There was a young girl
Who watched you cry that day,
When you stood all alone
Before a cruel crowd.
They showed you no mercy
As your tears freely flowed.
She knew of your pain.
Though you did not know
As she sat there among them,
She hated them so.
You never saw her
For she bowed her head
As her eyes filled with tears
They saw you instead.
She wanted to help –
She wanted to stand,
To walk over to you
And take hold of your hand.
But frozen in horror
As they taunted and teased,
She felt such a fear
The pain has never eased.
The girl now a woman,
The years all passed by,
Wonders still where you are;
Wonders if you still cry.
And now lifetimes later
After so many years,
To this day she remembers
And her eyes fill with tears.
She never forgot you
So alone there that day,
More than anyone ever.
She still longs to say –
That she was there with you
Though silently so…
She felt your pain too
And she wants you to know
How she quietly loved you
But so feared the display
To reach out and touch you
And be laughed at that day.
So she left you alone
In the shame of her fear,
And ached from a distance
As you endured it, my dear.
Looking back on it now,
You must surely see
The young girl there in spirit. . .
And that girl was me.

That poem is really beautiful, Peacemaker, I wish I could hear you recite it someday. I can sense you really put your soul into it.

Thanks you guys. BoogieMan, you have no idea...or maybe you do.
Take it as going to all my fellow outcasts, who have so endured. You know who you are.

Yours is very nice too Arachnid. 
But the real attention-getter is that signature of yours!!! In fact, it tends to upstage much of what you say in your posts!!!
I wonder what the male version of this short would look like. Hmmmm... Why don't you IM me with your source so's I can look into it!?!?!?!

What male version? You mean Mark had a little Hen? Or that She/he kept a rooster in a bucket?

(I was speaking of the cute little gal with the big bosoms, PH. I know you can't possibly have "overlooked" her.)

(It is interesting to note that the signature in question has changed. Sort-of lends a whole new meaning to my comment about it.)
