What about the child Who gives infinite hope and faith For the future and for life The sense of self contains joy Where are you now? Looking inside for comprehension For that power of deep connection The miracle of the bond is timeless Gazing at the stars for courage For great treasures that astoud Waking from that deep endless void Haunted by a sense of vast emptiness Images of the past, like a fairy tale Yearning for the old life, its magic Where are you now? Hope gives escape from overwhelming anguish Redemption of the lost spirit is reality Suffering gives strength, despair banishes Compassion can heal, amidst the lonliness The child forever empowers!
