There Are Children Here

“There are children here”
“There are children here, you know”
Are we all not children here?
Children playing and holding hands
Learning of love and new found fear
What child are you to say those words
That villains hold so dear
To hear the thoughts of monsters near
“There are children” we both hear
Were we not children too?
Both in love
Both in tears
When we heard the monsters jeer
Both with curls
Both young girls
“You know, there are children here”
