a baby's world

Why do you cry,
when the world around you is on fire with life,
you sit alone and dream,
please tell me why.

What do you dream of,
Is it so imposible you can't try to make it real,
With your eyes shut tight,
Lips sealed.

If i knew,
Would it make a difference to life,
Would it help you, knowing someone else shared your world,
Or, do you like this emptyness?

Do you know any better,
For you are young, you haven't seen the world yet,
Or, from your childs eyes do you know the world,
and are scared to go further.

For it is cruel,
Perhaps you know this already,
And experience does not need to teach you,
If only, you could say,
Could i help you,
to find the world you seek,
Or is it too far away?
