How Many Are Forgotten?

How many children cry alone

With no-one to dry their tears,

To comfort and reassure them

Through their tender years.

Will they ever hear

'I love you'

As they lay in their makeshift bed

Then stay awake knowing

In the morning, no way will they be fed? .



How many little voices pray

For the people in this world to be fair

Then do those heartbreaking words

Just float unnoticed forever in the air? .
