The Secret
Innocent whisper,
from an earth angel to me,
I have a secret,
please don’t tell.
Daddy will get mad at me.
Sweet child of five,
left alone at night
with baby brother, and
sister of three,
begging me please,
please come help me.
Earth angels of mine,
afraid and alone,
behind locked doors,
I found them at home.
Innocent whisper,
from an earth angel to me,
I miss Daddy,
is he mad at me?
Too young to understand,
afraid of the night,
he took away the light
from this child
who once shined so bright.
