Lost Child

Lost Child

So many sad children
Hurting without their parents
No brothers or sisters
No friends
No one to care about them
They huddle in corners
Waiting to find anything to eat
Or somewhere to sleep
Their lives are muddled colors
Nothing to match the world away from them
Although some may try to escape
To find some happiness in their lives
Others give up on life
Lose any hope they may have had
They turn to drugs
Or crime
Or worse
They are the ones we should cry for
For they are a person lost to this world
And they cannot be replaced
