I've got you
Hey sweet girl I know you are sad,
And life has been treating you oh so bad.
When all that you feel is despair and sorrow,
Just hang on in there and wait until tomorrow.
You smile so brightly for all to see,
Laugh and play like your spirits are free,
A ‘normal’ child as fas as anyone would guess,
But they can't see that your life is a mess.
There is sadness behind those big green eyes,
A little girl drowning under all the lies.
Who spends time alone just punching the wall,
Because if it hurts enough she can forget it all.
Confused and conflicted by all that you’ve seen,
I wish I could tell you it was just a bad dream.
The nightmares that you’ve lived are meant for none,
Let alone you sweet girl, so innocent and young.
Because those you love and should hold dear,
Have brought you nothing but pain and fear,
And the childish worries that should be your kin,
Are nothing compared to the darkness within.
You feel so alone that you don't want to wake,
Your life just feels like one big mistake,
The outlook is bleak and you want to just quit,
Roll over, surrender, give up, submit.
But I promise you this it will be okay,
You just need to get through the rest of today.
Your days will get better and bright,
They didn't predict you would grow with such might.
There is an Amazon within you and they will hear her roar,
You will come back stronger than ever before.
You will no longer be silenced and cower from the crowd,
If you could see what i see, you would be so proud.
I wish I could take your hand, and walk you down your path,
It's cruel and feels it's endless, but I promise it will pass.
Be brave, be kind, don't let them place the blame,
I will be there one day, when you life is not the same.
Put your trust in me, I won't steer you wrong,
We will lean on each other, with me you belong.
My words are my gospel, honest and true,
I know this you see, as I am you.
