What if???

A cry for help,
A cry of sadness,
A cry of sorrow,
A cry of a lonely heart,
A cry of not having what we want,
A cry of hopelessness,
A cry for love,
A cry of pain.

A child raised with morals and values,
A child brought into a world of love,
But has to fight the cruel world all alone.
With all the negativity, judgment and neglection,
With time, as a human you eventually adapt to your surroundings.

Left alone!

Feeling helpless,
Alone,
Scared,
And all alone.
But with the love around, it’s not strong enough.

Fighting and making your own stand to be a force to reckon with was all that the child could do.
Fit in with the others, camouflage and blend in
Wrong crowd but bears a life changing experience that leaves child weak; though strengthen through the inner child.

But wait?

Is it too late for family intervention?
Child is already lost to the world of lies, deceit, pain and insecurity.

No! No! Leave me alone! You’re hurting me
But no one comes to her rescue.

Scarred for life.
Ashamed.
Hurt and in pain.
Psychological trauma? Maybe

Wonders deep into the world.
Experimental,
But doesn’t fill what was lost!
One little mistake and child discovers, she’s alone and nowhere to run to but home.
In pain,
In tears,
In anger,
“Why me?”
Learns the hard way and can’t change the person they are,

Do things get better?

Witness a life threatening situation,
Witness many troopers fall along the way,
Witness oneself in the grave,

“Where am I?” “Someone please help”

I’ve come to realize that in life, so much goes on, the stories we hear about other people are at times scary and yet we still judge them and at times make fun of them.
Question is, 10 years down the line what if this happens to your child?
Or life experiences are like a footpath where we wipe off the footprints and scenarios we wouldn’t want others to experience?
Question, will you be there to listen or judge?
Be the tissue and shoulder needed?
