My differentiate World


 


 


I live in a world that is different from yours


We live and think differently


I am an extrovert and you sit all alone introverted


We are so diverse yet so linked together


We are like one person with multiple personalities


We see each other as different


But we are not
 
 

 


For every child who cries at night
Alone with shame and pain and fright


For every child who wants so much
To only feel a gentle touch
For the beaten child, who cries in pain
Whose tears run silent, like the rain


For the child used to satisfy lust
Who never learns to love or trust


For the child taken from her home
And made to feel so all alone


For the child whose home is just a shell
Where life becomes a living hell


For the child who smiles but cannot feel
Because of scars too deep to heal


For every child who yearns for love
I hope and pray to God above
To hear your cries and heal your pain
And give you back your life again

Lauren,


You definitely are a natural at poetry.  Your words are heartfelt and meaningful to all who read them.   I understand that you would not want to share with the general public the feelings you are letting out to us but I would encourage you to keep writing.  Have you thought about a career in journalism or other fields that you could use this gift?  Luv Leo xx
