She’s just a baby
Young to the world
Unaware of the ways of men
Innocent to the point of naïve
She looks at Mom to show her who to be
She looks at Dad to teach her to love
She looks at family to mold and shape her
She looks to friends to walk beside her
She doesn’t know what danger is
She doesn’t know the thoughts of others
She doesn’t know the meaning of love
She doesn’t know all words are not true
She’s just a Child
Learning to laugh
New to these thoughts
Unafraid and carefree
She looks to see that you’re still there
As she looks to the future
She looks to your eyes
Each tiny look, she memorizes
She looks to know you care
As she looks to life who isn’t fair
She trusts the false smiles
She trusts the longing gazes
She trusts the prettied words
She trusts too much
She clings to words of comfort
She clings to any hint of joy
She clings to childhood peace
She clings to what has passed
She’s just a baby
About to enter the world
Unaware of the danger
Unaware of the hurt
