The Best Poem Of Samantha Viles

The Stolen Child

I was happy and free once upon a time
But now all I see is a great big line
A line that separated me and my life
Like a cake being cut with a cold knife

It can never be mended or put back together
Just sitting by its self, now and forever.
That’s how it felt losing all that I had
Losing it all over something terribly bad

Losing my home, losing my friends
I think about that now, until the day ends
Being taken to a place I had never been before
Opening up a really dark door

A door that lead to another world
A world of sadness, sorrow and nothing to do
Just sit and stare and sing a sad tune
Oh I miss my old life even though it was dry and dusty
But this world is definitely rusty

Rusty with happiness, rusty with cheer
Now all I have is a great big tear
I could never have stopped what happened that day
I was at school trying to play

That’s when he came and took me away
Put me on a train that led me to today
I was only young and didn’t understand
But now all I have is one demand

I want my old life back, I want to be free
I want the life that meant a lot more to me
My life up in dry country, the life that I knew
The life that I had something special to do.

But now it is too late, and I can never return
So I have to live with a heart that will continue to burn.
