Lost In A World I Do Not know

Lost in a world I do not know.
Said a child, who was not that old.

Young, but yet wise be on their years
Crying silent tears

Trying to be all they can, as an adult,
Being shut down, not aloud to feel, what they truly felt.

Growing up way to fast, thinking back of a childhood past,
That, somehow didn''t last.

Remembering things good and bad,
Wishing they had, a Mom or a Dad.

Now their grown and feeling alone,
Trying to make themself a happy home.

Still crying silent tears that no one hears,
Looking at a world in a hidden fear.

They try to reach out for an older adult''s hand,
To guide them down a path they don''t yet understand.
Helping them to grow in a world they do not know,
Not to feel lost in a world feeling all alone.
