Child Abuse Once upon


Child Abuse 

Once upon a midnight smelly

Child abuse - tormentor of my dreams


Deep into that darkness hurting


Once I sat engaged and harming


By the grave I saw the abuses


On that day my soul grew juvenile


When I thought of the child abuse


My passion is the cunning cat

My mission in life is not merely to survive but thrive. Everything has beauty but not everyone can see. Remember to always be yourself. Happiness often sneaks in through a door you didn’t know you left open. If I cannot do great things, I can do small things in a great way. The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot. Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory. We have nothing to fear but fear itself.
