A Cry

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 4 love
A cry of pain

A child raised with morals n values,
A child brought into a world of love
But has to fight the cruel world all alone
With all the negativity, judgment and neglecting
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

Child 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?”
Child learns the hard way and cant 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 is will you be there to listen or judge
Be the tissue and shoulder needed?
