Jerlin's Cry

Let me in...inside your world of endless possibilities...
Let me feel your soul and touch your pure heart,
Let me crush the hardened mud that made you cold...
Let me give you warmth in my embrace,

I am dying inside because of you...
I am angered and in pain because of you...
I am HERE because of you...
Yet you are here because of them.

Let me cry out loud:
"You are nobody's fault!!!"
You are the greatest blessing that they just didn't see...
I am your warrior princess...
I'll take back what they have stolen from you.

So hush...cry no more.
In any way, at any time, in any world,
VICTORY IS OURS.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this last January 9, 2004...after spending a real goodtime playng with the toddlers at the orphanage center where I work. This is a poem I've written for ABUSED CHILDREN ALL OVER THE WORLD...
