Child Of Difference An angel silently sits close, to a child filled with hope. A hand upon a tousled head, its wings a protective cloak. Crystalline tears overflow its eyes, the child is passed without a glance. Ostracized, Differentiated. Condemned without a chance. Deplorable, despicable entity, scum of the earth to the world's eyes. The child's care-free innocent years, give birth to tears that will never dry. ~ Oh, child of my heart I know, the pain you now hold inside. I wish I could whisper it away, and in peace you'll forever abide. But that is not the ways of this world, many fear those different from them. Just know you're wrapped in a special love, forever bestowed the strength to mend. You will be blessed with rare understanding, a gentle heart that is perpetually wise. An ability to look past the physical, seeing deeply what hides behind eyes. A sensitivity to those who are hurting, within their victories you will sing. And within this pain that now is engraved, you'll be protected forever in my wings. |
