Sweet Corazon
.
She came to me with her transparent dreams
A pregnant young girl with her life to give
Death swims before her in hazy illusion
Forced and raped, she was left in pain
Searching for someone to make it all stop
Wandering aimless she searches for help
.
She goes without sleep and thinks it will help
A sordid parasite that eats at her dreams
Just passing through time as it comes to a stop
Fragile heart of glass, with no future to give
The hollowed sphere on a pendulum of pain
The swinging emotion a perpetual illusion
.
Endlessly aching, consumed in illusion
Searching for drugs thinking that will help
She closes her eyes and she sees the pain
Mindless and boundless, obscure in her dreams
Look in her eyes and the desperation they give
Mindless and boundless, obscurity won’t stop
.
Yet her bright wondering gaze came to a stop
As her blind eyes scream in silent illusion
She can't understand, a cold stare to give
All empathy lying un-graced with all help
An eternal echo trapped in her dreams
As empty as the ocean when I see her pain
.
Her thought of abortion causes me pain
Pregnant and desperate she wants it to stop
All that makes her whole, is held in her dreams
All of her guilt is just an illusion
Those that she sought refused to give help
So honor and pride to her we must give
.
Together, we pray knowing God will give
I know that with love, we can heal the pain
I’m here with my heart and my hands to help
I love her so much and want her pain to stop
We must give her life and destroy her illusion
If only we could, we would sweeten her dreams
.
If only others would give, these atrocities would stop
There must be a way to kill the pain and keep the illusion
So give of yourself to help these kids and restore their dreams
