Invisible Child
Invisible Child
It’s missing it’s missing its forever gone from me
A thief came when I could not fully see
And I was so small it was so easy to take
I made a wish and blew out the candles on the cake
It’s gone it’s gone for oh so long
It’s a scar to far so deep too strong
And it was so easy to take some more
I played in the yard it came in through the door.
Get in Get in some fun for you
I can look and do as others do
But I don’t know what is really right or wrong
Screaming or yelling are both a song
I painted my face and again I was gone
He is here he is here beside me
I wonder what he really sees
His heart of love he tries to give
I wonder now how long I will live
A child a child came through me
I will protect and he will not be
Splintered and fractured by the thief
I will tell the secret they made me keep
So long so long where have all gone?
I awoke again and was so aware
What the thief had taken
Because there is no one near
I stood in the mirror and just stared
I see I see I see me
I hear I hear I hear me
I know I know how it should have been
But no one cared to see me way back then
I made a wish and blew out the candles again
