These People Need Love

There is a girl,
who wishes to be thin.
As she sucks in her stomache she ponders,
she wishes to be the person in the mirror.

There is a boy who wishes to close his door,
open his window and jump.
He wishes he could be gone,
dissapear from this life.

There is child who wishes for the teddybear in the window.
She wishes her mother wouldn't hit her.
She wishes her father wouldn't drink,
get angry and hurt her.

There is a man who closes his eyes to his childrens hurt.
This man will not look at his children,
they remind him,
so muchly so,
of his broken childhood.

There is a grandmother who will never see her grandchildren.
She will not live till tomorrow,
she will not to today.
She has been brought to a better place.

There is a mother, a father, a child, a teen, a grandparent.
Each have their own hurt,
each their own fear,
each there own pain.

Love,
Love these people with everything you have.
Love until you cannot love anymore.
These people,
need love.
