Pure innocence is what is within a child`s eyes But the innocence is lost when the eyes start to cry The imagination is filled with pain blocked from the sun While the world shall decide who has lost and who has won For the crime that they shoulder is given their fate To suffer for sins that are brought on by hate Their voices heard within the time of the light Afraid of the fear that does come with the night Is this their reward for who`s image they are born Standing hungry and alone with their spirits that are torn Will their spirit still sing on the wings to the sky As they wait for the forgotten answer to the question why
Reason for writing:
For the forgotten children around the world
who die needlessly
Birth sign: Taurus
