The Lost Children

TheLostChildren.png

We were healthy,

We were happy,

And we were harmonious.

We were innocent,

We were sheltered,

And we were children.

We have been ripped fro our childhoods,

Our possessions snatched,

Our hope was taken by them.

Our futures were bright,

And now they are dark,

Not knowing when our final day is going to come.

In the future, people will find out about this,

They will come and liberate this pain,

They will discover the horrific suffering that has reigned over the lives of millions.

They will remember us - the lost children.
