The Center's HIV Baby

Serious elvauation Of my heart, my sould Fears they say are human Now seem to be cruel and inhumane How can I deny this child This small and innocent one The love I would so freely give  To another just so young How do I walk away Turn my back and run Feel comfortable giving To any other child What I so selfishly withhold from one It doesn't seem quite right  That HIV could claim a baby What can I do but love him Take the risk that could mean my life Wrap my arms around and love The Center's HIV baby
