Childhood lost.

Childhood lost.

A Poem by slightly terrified

Oh how I wish I could help all the hurting children.
I realize how many children grow up with terrible conditions not even knowing how bad they really have it. How can one be so cruel to a child? Teaching them of evil at such a young age. I've seen it myself, family, treating their children terribly. Do they not realize how this affects them? They are going to grow up and believe that all these things are perfectly normal. I know I've not seen the worst of it, and I'm glad I haven't. I don't understand how someone can live with themselves knowing they've caused a child harm or are mentally damaging them for life. I want to become a foster parent, for all the damaged kids. I know I would have to work slowly. But knowing I'm making a change, even a small one, would make it all worth it. I want to help children learn to cope with their depression, and learn to trust people again. No child deserves such evil.

I can completely agree with the points made in this piece. It pains me whenever I think of some of the hardships that children have to go through every day. Don't get me wrong, I can pretty much feel for everyone when it comes to suffering in some way...but a child's suffering...that always strikes me a certain way. I guess it's just because I think of a child as being so innocent...it's kinda like they never had a good start in the first place. Reading this made me kinda sad, but it really made me think of some of the troubles in the world. Well done.

It goes back generations.... At this point, no one is to blame. & that kills me to say.

Makes me think of lifetimes lost....

I have been very uninspired lately so I won't be posting as much. That is also why my pieces are decreasing in quality so I'd rather not post a lot of bad ones and just post a good one when the right .. more..
