I wish I could save the children of the world who are without love...
I wish I could save the children of the world who are without love.
Without the unconditional love that they deserve
from the two people who created them.
The children who have no choices
No abilities, and no voices.
I wish that I could bear children
for the men and women who really want to have children.
The women who are incapable.
The men and women who want to love
To raise, to nourish, and to cherish
The men and women who are responsible
Enough to take care of their own.
To teach their child right from wrong.
To educate them until they are grown.
To let them make some mistakes on their own
But still be there for them when they come back home.
I wish I could share all the love I have inside of me
With the children who feel like...
They have none.
They are innocent.
Children must be taught, and nurtured.
If you are consistent and persistent
they will listen.
Because all they need is the right attention.
The right affection.
The right direction.
But when you push your child aside
and don't take the little time
that it takes to make them smile
They begin to close up inside.
They find other ways and places to get the feelings that their
Real mother and father erases
Every time they say to "stop!!"
getting on their cases
and send them to new homes and places,
or give them life,
but no parents with faces;
They begin to look elsewhere,
For the satisfaction of feeling like..
Someone really cares.
Someone really loves them.
They were brought into this world.
They were brought into this world.
They did not ask to be here.
You brought them in.
Then you should be ready
to deal with what you've been given.
Because a child is a gift
And there could be no greater pleasure
Than being able to call yourself a mother or a father
and actually following through with the role, the position.
I wish I could make them smile.
Make their little bodies feel full of love inside
So they'll never be hungry again.
I wish I could give a snuggly heart warming hug to each and every one of them.
And if I could make a difference in one child's life,
It would bring a smile to my heart
and a happy, warm-filled tear to my eye
That's how good you can feel if you went through with helping someone too
The kind of good feeling that makes you so full of joy
you want to cry.
The kind you get when you see a child who feels so happy on the inside,
That it shows on their face
When they smile on the outside.
I wish I
could save
the children of the world
Who are without love.
