Fragile souls
In this harsh world
No where to go
No one to trust
Little spirits
Trying to go on
Find their way
In this crazy place
Tiny hearts
Beat constantly
Shatter endlessly
Lost to heaven
Miniature bones
Snap and break
Anger hits
Lost to nothingness
Sad eyes
Fall upon you
Ask for your help
Plead for your love
Grubby hands
Reach for yours
Grab a hold
Don't let go
Eyes close
They are scared
In our world
Is much to fear
Hold them close
Protect them from harm
Never let them injure
Never let them away
Keep your eyes on them
Let them know your there
Keep them safe and warm
Never let them face harm
Our little children
So young and naive
They need to learn slowly
About this cruel place
Show them love and care
Take the time to give affection
Never neglect them and always
Treasure what you have
