Child Poem by Lubna Hazeem

Preys for demons who haunt the desert
Clothed in rainbow coats and feathers
The perfect example for innocence
Searching for untouchable evidence
Sheltered by the trees of life
She asks the clouded skies
When all my tears must flow,
Where on earth they must go?
Am i surrounded by breathes of hope?
Or must i keep the search on my own?

Oh, her imagination's a wide haven
In the center where she's been caving
Where she's filled with curiousity
Trying to fulfill her neccessities
The childlike thirst for knowledge
Longs than fades to become solid
I don't care whatever they call it

Because humiliation's not my name
And today will never be today without....tommorow
Oh, determination's not to blame
And shadows will never be the same without...color
And i will never stop
This child will never stop
And this child can never be lost
With you to be
With you to need
And with you again....
