What Child is This?

by *ShElBz-   May 11, 2005


This is the child-
who has seen many things a child should not see.
this is the child-
who has been hurt too many times.
this is the child-
who has heard things a child should not hear.
this is the child-
who has not been loved as a child should be.
this is the child-
whose parents have scarred for life.
this is the child-
who is growing up to fast.
this is the child-
who is truly loved by only one.
this is the child-
who you walked away from.
this is the child-
whose life you could have changed.
this is the child-
who is gone and forgotten.
