Kid's life

*

Off into the darkness we used to stare

But mom and dad were not anywhere

One night the police came from some where

*

Said we had to go with them

1 was big and 1 was slim

We didn't want to go with them

*

I felt my heart cry

While my eyes stayed dry

I was pondering why?

*

The ache of childhood

The despair, the loneliness

We tried and were usually good

*

What do they know?

To the hospital mom had to go

About our dad we just didn't know

*

We clammed up and wouldn't give an inch

One thing we already knew life wasn't a cinch

We stayed silent and we never flinch

*

So little not wanting to be keen

Why was the world so mean

Thank god we were finally seen
