for the little ones inside...

You hurt too much for me to know…
Oh, even I might never feel your pain…
Those ghosts arrive with death and grief
Casting down your spirit once again

Sympathy will never suffice
In bringing you long forgotten cheer
I wish I had the words to speak
The healing words you oh so need to hear

But I care…as much I can
And I’m here for you, oh I pray
I cannot change what happened then
But I can still love you today

You deserved the world and all of its riches
Not silver or gold but innocence and light
You deserved a chance that you never had
A future that held promise oh so bright

I may not understand you completely
I may never feel the pain you feel today
But I’m here for you now and always
And I’ll be still here loving you, I pray.
