The child,
Siting hunched in the corner,
Cold and hungry,
Watches the heaving bodies on the make-shift bed.
...
His eyes show only love for her
And hold no bitter pain,
His lips which caressed her naked form
Will n'er do so again.
...
You know I've not gone, you can see me,
If you'ld only close your eyes,
You know I've not gone, you can hear me,
So don't listen to their lies
...
With the smack and the cry of childbirth
Was born the flower child,
Ruled by the sun, the wind, the rain,
Like nature, running wild.
...
In the dark recesses of the silent mind,
Sleep comes creeping near.
With gentle strokes he calms each nerve
And blots out any fear.
...
Don't turn the light on
Don't shut the door
Don't you ignore me
'cos I've been here before.
...
