As we are born into this world we have,
our parents are our teachers some are good some bad.
Yet as we get to where we are able to see about us right and wrong,
It's a direction we all learn all along.
Take the child abused in the home,
as the parent in their time once left alone and cold.
Battered and unloved left his or her soul tired and afraid,
often brings this destruction on their own one day.
Every-ones soul is there within sight,
it's how you are raised on how it shines.
As you grow older you become that caretaker you see,
and you can change it and let it be free.
Teach the children abuse is not something to hide,
as their parents tells them every night.
Teach them they are their own souls caretaker you see,
for their little voices needs to be heard to set them free.
All about you it follows your lead,
you know how you want to live so set yourself free.
Let your soul dance and bring laughter each day,
break out of the chains taught to you along the way.
Take not drugs of any kind or the soul you will leave behind,
unable to feel joy and as the body breaks down in time.
You become unfeeling to the world about you all around,
and your soul screams yet makes not a sound.
Author notes
To all children who reads this know that no child should ever be abused in any way . Reach out to everyone and let it be known the pain you feel and have endured . Help yourself find a place for your soul to know joy once again and put the abuse to an end .
