The Cry of Step Children

Oh! What a thunder from their cry
Will their face ever dry?
One may think they are free 
But their sufferings is a tree 

They grieve for peaces 
But yet keep drowning in pieces 
Will they ever be heard? 
Is there any hope been held to? 

They are been mock 
On streets,they don't walk 
When will God talk?
I pray for a chalk mark of their happiness!

Their lives scatters on floors 
I pray one sees that their lives matters 
They could be one of the best lawyers 
And they could answer prayers.
