I am an extrovert and you sit all alone introverted
We are so diverse yet so linked together
We are like one person with multiple personalities
We see each other as different
But we are not
For every child who cries at night Alone with shame and pain and fright
For every child who wants so much To only feel a gentle touch For the beaten child, who cries in pain Whose tears run silent, like the rain
For the child used to satisfy lust Who never learns to love or trust
For the child taken from her home And made to feel so all alone
For the child whose home is just a shell Where life becomes a living hell
For the child who smiles but cannot feel Because of scars too deep to heal
For every child who yearns for love I hope and pray to God above To hear your cries and heal your pain And give you back your life again

Lauren,
You definitely are a natural at poetry. Your words are heartfelt and meaningful to all who read them. I understand that you would not want to share with the general public the feelings you are letting out to us but I would encourage you to keep writing. Have you thought about a career in journalism or other fields that you could use this gift? Luv Leo xx
