Do Not Surrender Your Childhood Dreams!
There's More To Life Than It Would Seem!
For Truly One Day You'll Have A Need!
Remember The Joys Of Foregone Past.
For Tomorrow Will Come To Make Them Last!
Too Much The Pain Of Yesterdays.
When Rape's Injustice Destroyed My Days!
My Innocence Lost Far Too Soon!
A Shattered Child To Look For Doom!
Horrible Times Did Follow Then.
With Questions, and Answers Not To Come!
So This Inner Child I Hide Inside;
Has Blocked Those Memories Of That Wrong!
Now My Childhood Is From One To Eight;
Not Another Memory Past That Date!
I Will Not Try To Break Those Bonds;
My Memory In Place Will Still Be Strong!
A Bond Of Love At Last Be Formed!
To Shut Out The Harm From Yesterday's Wrong!
