Invisible
The screams so loud
That within their distance
People stand and cry
But the tears and screams
Invisible
The impact of the punch
A crater on a child's life
People shake their heads
But the punch and judgement
Invisible
Invisible screams
Invisible fears
Invisible lives
Torn apart in invisible times
Invisible child
Not knowing where to turn
To escape what so many choose not to see
Invisible child
Sleeping in invisible arms
Where invisible child is desperate to sleep tonight
Only when they put a tiny body into a sack
The tape rings the place where at
All that was invisible before
Suddenly becomes a cause
Invisible the bruises that grew with the tears
The fractured bones
That lay alone
Invisibly
Invisible
The childhood crushed
Invisible
All the hatred that bleeds
Invisible
Those lost forever in the scream
Invisible
All those who beg to forget
For all that others could not see
To become invisible
