Love Child

Every time I look into her young eyes I can see the many nights that she's cried from all the things she's gone through

Only 12 years old and already she's written the blues 

Innocent since birth, yet victimized time and time again on Earth 

By the very people who is supposed to love her

But just like a witches evil potions she' s been cursed with the blood of the wicked

Now only God can cleanse her soul and once again make her whole 

I've watched her change colors like the sky

Black from a strike to her to eye

Purple from bruises to her physique 

Red from her stolen innocence 

Blue from the emotion representing most of her days 

For this child I pray

I pray for peace to rest in her mind as she evolve in time 

And I pray for love to cover all the coldness that lye in her heart 

And I pray for healing, healing to give her a brand new start

So that she can see for the first time in her life what is like to be a child

And not a punching bag

And not a sexual play object for a heartless man

Or a piece of garbage thrown into the garbage can 

Or target practice for a size 12 

I pray that God  will remove all the scars to reveal an untampered flesh beneath the layers this love child

And give a brand new smile

One that will radiant with beauty

Poise with laughter 

Cry with happiness 

And glow with love

I pray that her lader will be greater than her past

I pray that she will grow up to be smarter than her wounded weak mind right now

Father if there isn't another thing I ask of you throughout my days

I pray that you will deliver this baby from her inherited evil ways 

And show her that all the colors of her past represents a rainbow 

A promise to her that no matter how many storms may come into her life

She will never be destroyed from the waters that rain down from her eyes

the many nights that she's cried

from all the nightmares of her past life.
