A Heart Felt Scream of Child's Broken Dream

I never thought I could scream, yet I never thought I would dream. In my life I've been struggling, always fighting always hurting. I solemnly swore I won't let them see me get hurt, But with my heart on fire I always got burnt. I had a vision I used to believe, now all I am left with is tears and shattered dreams. Then something was taken from me, It was the ability to simply be me. Threatened, with a gun held to my face, Fearful as my family is gone with out a trace. I ask myself, O' where thy promised grace. In that vision I used to believe. Then I realize it's all gone I can't help but to grieve, What have you done loudly I say, All I wanted was peace and a place to pray. And now all I do is screaming Cause I even lost the right of dreaming… A little Tribute to all the suffering children out there.. God Bless and guide those who are in war may they find peace once again.
