Do the heavens hear their cries? How can they let these children slowly die? I pray now spare them from agony Sew their wings and set them free For they are not slaves of poverty But of souls unworthy of their sanity A song for you my child It is not your fault You are not born to cry A child is a child Even if he sleeps in a bed of sweets or in the busy streets In your eyes pure innocence and love In your hopes and dreams you must fly like a dove High as the angels above Never will the sirens wake you Never will the stones hurt you Never will the cold bite you For tonight you will not wake in fright Rest in peace my child The moon will swallow your woes The stars will weave your dreams And they will make you warm as you sleep -Forgotten Angels, Margaret Austin Go

Forgotten Angels
Why should I fear the very world Responsible for bringing my essence to life? Where does my voice hold most power? Is the only safe place inside the confines of my own troubled mind? Imprisonment. Torture. Continuous mistreatment. She's only a baby!! He's only a baby!! What do you stand for?! I will not bow down I will not grovel on my knees When there are glorious children in need! I will fight for their honor! In the name of Salvation! Your lies, are murdering us all Your neglect, is corrupting us all! Your silence, is putting up more walls. Armed with a sword of light in these dark times. I pray to our immortal universe. The Black Market crashes with the heaviest fall! In the name of love and heaven! Please be with me! If my time may, come now or sooner. Many wounds, I take upon myself to suture. Every dimension will remember these words... STOP  KILLING THE CHILDREN OF OUR FUTURE!!
