child

I was born for a second time

In a dark and silent byroad.

I am a child to small to stand alone

But the arms around me are leaving.

Unable to stand alone I’m trying not to fall

But my feet aren’t strong enough to stand alone.

I tried to speak

But my voice wasn’t heard

The words I tried to say weren’t heard .

For I’m a child to small to make words

That can be understood and move a heart.

You thought me how to speak, but I can’t.

So here I am

Helpless and weak

Unable to live alone

So I joust try to close my eyes

And give in, if I fall.
