Child

by KristenNoel - Libra

Just because I am a child 
Doesn't mean that i have nothing to say 
I could talk for hours if you'd only listen 
Just because I am a child 
Doesn't mean that I am oblivious 
I see through your eyes, I see your pain 
Just because I am a child 
Doesn't mean that I don't know what is best 
I too have made hard decisions 
Just because I am a child 
Doesn't mean that I shouldn't hear 
I've been called far worse by my peers 
Just because I am a child 
Means that I need to be heard 
If only you'd take a minute 
Just because I am a child 
Means that I too have pain 
No one is that oblivious 
Just because I am a child 
Means that I need help 
Decisions can always use advice 
Just because I am a child 
I hear far too much 
Words just pierce deeply 
Think about this long and hard 
Adults are just big children 
With more responsibility and the same needs 
The difference is I realize this 
Even though I am just a child
