- Children In Mourning -

Nobody can change childhood, it's impossible
                Children should feel safe in their own home, unstoppable
                Tear down fear, shame, guilt, sorrow, anger and bitterness
                Much hurts and must be combated, a hunt for happiness


                Free me from tears and pain of mind and soul
                When heart breaks and then heals, set the goal ...

Faraz Ajmal Date: 6/18/2018 6:12:00 AM This is a really inspiring poem with a deep and beautiful message, everyome deserves to be happy and enjoy life especially when they are in their childhood, once it gone, it will not return and once you are adult, you have so many different problems, so every child deserves to enjoy their childhood, but sadly that s not the case with everyone, if our childhood was awesome, we must thank God, good luck in the contest Login to Reply Anne-Lise Andresen Date: 6/18/2018 6:28:00 AM - A broken childhood ... can often be a broken adult life, Faraz - Many thanks for your visit and comment - hugs // Anne-Lise :)
