Orphan Child

He’s living in a game Of heart’s hide-and-seek No he got no shelters And yes he is very weak. He’s living in a world Where laughter is a fantasy Where tears can never be hidden Oh loneliness he felt. Oh mother, oh father! His heart is in need Oh mother, oh father! Why did you leave? He was never in a sight Of any mankind eyes The ones who’s in rich Never knew he exists. He’d been seeking for his heart For a love that he missed He’d been searching for his soul For a life he had wished People cast their eyes on him in disgust Oh friendship he’d got none Their laughter shakes upon him While his tears starts to fall. He wanted to be where his parents are. He wanted to know what life means Happiness, his friend, would never come Oh his patient disappears. The day had sadly ended Another day will start But when his life had ended Will another one start? Oh poor little orphan You’re the darkness in the light Never had you got in sight Of any mankind eyes.
