The Mind of a Child

Day and night I hear whispers, Whispers of crying children Why? I have committed no crime I'm only a child, so why? Those cries strike my heart like an arrow I shiver, they're wounded, the children Why? Why must I experience this? It's a test? Of course it is Or could it be that I am a child Ignore, is what people always do But why can't I ? This seems real The pain, the screams, the cries of those innocent children And yet why must I witness such a thing The new life of a flower burns down to ashes Once more, no one cares Where's the feeling, the love and warmth? It's gone, humanity is no more Yet why am I the only one that sees it? The struggle is real This is reality!
