The Unheard Child

If there's one thing that's important in this world, it's the welfare of our children...

Your face is everywhere- Am I the only one that sees you? Your tear-filled eyes tear at my soul.
I've seen that look before...in my own reflection.
Your cries fall upon deaf ears- Am I the only one that hears you?


 I can't take you in my arms- I can only take you into my heart, But I have room for many of you.
You didn't ask to be brought into a world that seems blind to your needs. What a price you pay- You are so brave.
If I could take your pain surely I could bear it much easier than you, for I have felt this pain and I understand.


I pray God will keep you safe in His care. For you are... the abused child.

Abuse of a child is the worse thing in this world a child must sometimes go through. May your message stop an abuser in his or her tracks. Great write.

Say Something Terrorible v3 by RickthePoetWarrior

My mom says ‘If you can’t say anything nice then don’t say anything’. Sorry mom but under the guise of poetic license I penned these beauties.
