I Am the Child

You and I have never met
but I am the child you must not forget.
I am the child who whimpered at night.
I am the child whose future was bright.
I am the child whose fear was real.
I am the child whose scars won't heal.
I am the child you see each day
who is not your problem, so you turn away.
I am the child, the child so small
who only wanted to be loved, that's all.
You and I have never met
but I am the child you must not forget.
