Children Of The Night Poem by Dave Alan Walker

Children Of The Night

Rating: 5.0


Who hears the screams
of the children of the night
Who pays the price
For their plight

A life full of lies
To keep
Their nightmares quiet

Who will help
The children
Before it's too late

Who hears
Their whispered cries
As they become adults
and heroin becomes their light

Who hears the screams
of the children of the night

I've taken time to think and ponder on this masterpiece. I think you just asked the deep question of life: who hears the screams of the children of the night? . Thanks boss
