"I CRY FOR THE CHILDREN" by Joanne Boyle

"I CRY FOR THE CHILDREN"
by Joanne Boyle

I cry for the children

that just went to play

and were expected to return

home on the same day.

I cry for the parents

but not for the thief,

that stole their love

and replaced it with grief.

I cry for the innocence

of every lost soul.

When someone came along

and their futures stole.

I cry for every person

that wishes for the power.

To go back in time

and prevent that hour.

I cry for each loss

of those that are taken.

The nightmares continue

for those that awaken.

I cry for our future.

For all the pain and despair.

But we must not give up

and hope will be there
