Pigtails Five years old Always did what her mama told Daddy was gone Home wasn't home. Just another place that they would leave soon. Mama was trying hard. But she was barely getting by. And she loved her little girl Didn't let her leave her side. Daddy gave up and left them for a dream Leaving them to scrounge for pennies. For the little girl, hope was still there. She was too young to know why she should be scared. But mama knew and she cried Every single night. She knew that a miracle would happen soon. It would just take a little time.
