a child confused and sometimes lost
we all pay the cost
searching far and wide what do they feel inside
our precieved protection to some rejection
eager to keep them safe believing in our chosen faith
reluctant to let them go how can they really know
belief is something live and needs to grow
driven from our family life because of religious strife
the world has multiple ways of catching our strays
so much evil so much good they must choose their path
with our love and support they make mistakes and
lives the world takes when we forgive and recieve their forgivness
even when they are gone they stay with us
when we loose one a daughter or son
we may have many but will allways miss the one
we ask ourselves what have we done
could it have been different by something said or done
guilt anger pain and shame they all feel the same
to hold them once more to comfort. Our heart and souls as before there is no fault no one knows from the start
