Sorrowing Child

Am suppose to be the future in tomorrow But I already feel I hate what lies ahead Am just a couple years into this life thing And suppose to be a little one living a carefree life Jumping and dancing in the rain while dirt covers me Am suppose to be taught, loved and showed how things should go Like a lioness showing her young cub the ways of the hunt But am left to figure it out alone Mostly taking the wrong paths, learning things the hard way I feel the weight on my chest, makes me struggle to breathe And the burden I carry around leaves me stunted in all coners of life And they question why I hardly smile How can I when all buried within me is pain How can I be use to such thoughts at a tender age But then, the darkest night shows the brightest stars That gives me hope and I move on A living dog is better than a Dead lion they say
