Through My Eyes


Through The Eyes Of A Child

By: Kala Tirado

 

Through the eyes of an innoncent child

In what world would you have imagined

Living in a world where things just do not make sense

Trying to understand if something was your  fault when in reality it wasn't

All you desire is the love of the only parent you have left

To be accpeted, to be love and to be understood is not too much to ask for

To be compared to a late mother you never knew, but also bullied for it as well

Display no physical or emotional pain, but smile instead

Seems as though you're walking a path alone

Suddenly with the blink of an eye 

Awareness starts to kick in

Development, Discover, Dependentability, Devoted, Determination and Dream

Through the eyes of an innocent Child
