Child Crusader
Child Crusader
My life is not my own,
but a tribute for a greater sake.
Striving to make better a world,
that children did not make.
Giving a child a chance to live,
unlike us from way back when.
Preventing a repeat of a childhood,
from happening all over again.
In doing so, is not easy,
because harm comes from all around.
Hoping to identify with every child,
who becomes lost and not found.
For the cycle continues, and continues.
Still we must persist,
and if they still don't want to listen,
then we must insist.
Until finally the point,
for children, is made clear.
The world is going, to be as it is,
unless a chance, is given here.
