Tears of Hope






Tears of Hope


I cry for the children who reach out in vain
For words of endearment they once had gained
For were they not little precious bundles of joy
Now it seems in their presence they annoy
Mothers and Fathers drifting apart
From the solemn vows they pledged of the heart
Slaps and curses have replaced the caress
From the daily routine of creative stress
We cry for the love to return to these souls
So the future of these children they can nurture and mold
So they can reach out to the enrichment of life
To have pride in themselves and a path that is right
I pray dear lord that you wipe away the tears
Of these adults and children who have lived in fear
Let the power of your love abide in these hearts
In this new journey free of violence they now embark
