Lost Child

 

 

 

 

 

Lost Child

 

Lost Child,

wandering around in a

maze of your own making.

Looking for exit

that are there in front

of you.

 

Lost Child,

my heart aches for you

my soul, cries out to you

my hands reach out

to empty space

because you,

are looking the other way.

 

Lost Child,

the pain you feel

IS real.

But you can make it

less scary,

more manageable

when you make a choice.

 

Lost Child,

choose life

over death.

Fight your way through

the pain and the sorrow.

Scream louder

than the voices in your head.

 

Lost Child,

DO NOT GIVE UP!

There is a need of you in this world

There are lessons we need to learn

from you,

and those you need

to learn from us.

 

Lost Child,

we are,

ALL of us

afraid and alone at times.

Reach out.

I’m reaching to you.

Lean on me.

I’ll be your strength.

 

Lost Child,

you don’t have to be alone.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Fight, please fight

for your life.

You’re worth it.

I’m right beside you

and here I’ll stay.

M.W.
