Be still little Child.

Be still little child; you have no worries or fears.
For in your eyes, the World has no meaning yet.
With age comes reality and harsh truths will follow.
Brace yourself for the one hard fall that threatens to kill.
For the World to you--is only just a playground.
Where fiction and non-fiction tangle with what's been told.
Keep your facts correct and your truths before all the lies.

The lies will die.
The stories will fade.
Then it'll start all over again.

Be still little child; you have no worries or fears.
For in my eyes, there are many more years to come.
With age comes knowledge and the facts I shall give.
Don't be scared you'll do just fine with me by your side.
For you will have the intelligence to know your rights from wrongs
Nothing is quite as it seems little child of mine.
There's that fine line that shall not be crossed.

Be still little child.
Have no worries.
Have no fears.
