The Starving Child's Story

Don't pretend, I don't exist Look at my body Look into my face This is my story This is my life This is reality Don't run, don't hide Don't pass me by Look into my eyes Every tear has its story Wait don't close that gate I haven't ate, all I ask is that You stop and full my plate.
