"In Hiding" by Kristen Hanrahan

This little girl ought
to come out of hiding
between cracks
in the dark
behind infinite sadness
this little girl
ought to show her face
speak on her own
learn to live
this little girl
is hiding in fear
of the predators of
the night.
The ones who hurt her
in the past.
She fears the past
