Oh My Child
Walk alone if you must
And carry no one who drags you down
But find new people along the way
Wrap those in need of a blanket
Feed the hungry ones
Smile to the lonely ones
Love the heartless
Shelter the homeless
And you too will find comfort
In the days and nights of your tears
For they were both of joy and pain
As life is nothing without the other
And carry yourself in humility
And walk the earth in gratitude
Sleep the night in the silence of repentance
For the heart echoes what cannot be said
As time can never undo what has been done
