TO BE LOVED AND CARED FOR

 

To be strong for so long

To camouflage your true feelings

To wipe the tears away

To force the pain to fade away

To lose your best friend

To be nursed by experiences

To lose trust for those around you

To be suspicious of love

To live in terror

 

To be homeless

To flee from violence

To be abused

To be mistreated

To be scarred by the one you love

To hide from the beatings

To be rescued from the drama

To be misunderstood

And guarded by uncertainty

 

To find comfort once more

To know what it feels like to be safe again

To be loved and cared for

To eat and be satisfied

To look back at your past and be grateful

To be thankful for all you have

To know plenty

To give plenty

To be loved and cared for
