children of the world
trapped in grown up bodies
seem to drift further away
from their innocence
from freedom and inner peace
they forget , with each passing moment
their hearts burn still
from childood torments
inflicted by those they loved most.

when will we rise and to protect our sons and daughters
from the damage inside of us?..
I say there are many ways
the first one: let them lead.

They know and feel more than you
serene eyes that see
straight through your soul.
They love you with all your flaws
let them teach you
this supreme kind of Love.
Let their joy be your guiding star
you will never get lost.
