Weighing The Facts

Child Of God

Whats wrong with this child that wanders alone

So lost in the dark and frightened

Who scared this beautiful child of God

And put her in the dark that she hides in

What is this child of God looking for

Often does she wonder

Answers to questions that she can’t find

Or to scared to want the answers

Who hurt this beautiful child of God

Does she hurt herself

By binging and purging and starving herself

What will it take to heal this child of God

Often does she wonder

The answers lies within the child of God

She has all the answers.
