No Body There
Nobody there
To hear a plea
Come from a child
Who was only three.
Nobody there
To stop the pain
Or cover her up
In the pouring rain.
Nobody there
To shovel her free
From the rising dirt
So she could see.
Nobody there
To give a heave
And remove the dirt
So she could breathe.
Nobody cared
To say a word
To save the child
From what occurred.
Nobody dared
Or even cared
To dry her tears
When she was scared.
Nobody gave
A damn that day.
Not a person stopped
To even pray.
