Deathless Child

Who kills a child and gets away, 
Lives to kill more on another day.
The child he kills he fears so much, 
He seeks her soul he cannot touch.
He takes down the life he only sees, 
And grants her life no one can seize.
The death he caused this bird of peace
Shall dog his soul and end his lease.
He shall be damned in hell for this.
As this we know shall not him miss.
