Gazing deeply into small eyes

Forever softly they shall speak

Whispering voices from deep within

Cries of pain for no one to hear


They shall never see beyond

Endless seasons of changing emotion

Channeled rage and hatred

Hidden behind a mask of sorrow


Haunting memories are silenced

Deeply woven into the fibers

Of a small, fragile mind

Broken only by kisses of sleep


Everlasting dreams of love

consuming the life and soul

Evolve into a new darkness

Shunned by an untrue victory
