Does Anyone Care? Part II


Does anyone care what goes on anymore?

Children are fragile beings of the earth.

They abused and locked behind closed doors,

Kidnapped and killed just after day of birth.

 

At home children are beaten black and blue,

Hospitalized with bloody scars and a bruise.

They need your help, enact all you can do,

Because if you don’t, it’s their life they’ll lose.

 

For years children are shown to be missing,

Agencies try to find every child.

Fro they should be home with warmth and kissing,

Instead their corpse is found in the wild.

 

What kind of life will these hurt children lead?

Hopefully a life in which they won’t bleed.
