Why I am here.

by Rachel   Jan 24, 2006


As I sit here thinking
About why I'm here
I see a child
Start to shed a tear

I ask what's wrong
and she didn't reply
Whatever it was it made her stay there and cry.

I sat beside here
As I felt the pain that she felt
I asked her again what was wrong,
And she said "I wrote it in my song"

She began to sing,
"My mommy don't love me and my daddy don't care, I ask for some help with my homework and they just stare
They give me a look so painful it makes me want to scream
So I pray to God I wish this was a dream"

She told me she had no friends
And a family that doesn't care
"Sometimes I think I'm ready to go
As I tremble in fear."

Now I know God gave me a reason
I know it's to help you that are in doubt.
