Our Children's Future
Our children's innocence is gone;
they see and hear more than they should,
in this mad mixed up world,
where there is more evil than there is good.
They fear not the boogey man like we did;
there are real people now playing these roles,
Children's lives are filled with fear, tension and stress;
for many, survival is their main goal.
So many are filled with hate and anger;
others with just plain fear,
when I think of our struggling children,
my heart sinks and my eyes begin to tear.
