My Children

My children are gone,
Not here, faraway.
Away from their mom,
All alone,
Only themselves,
To comfort eachother,
In a home,
Not their own.


I weep,
A million tears for them,
But weeping don't help.
It won't bring them back,
Only me.


Depression,
Dispair,
Nobody seems to care.


My children,
Lost in a world,
A world full of cruelity,
and pain.
Some place they don't know.

I want to scream.
