Silent Children

By unusual_blood

Silent child
Angry yelling
Waiting
Waiting

Silent child
Beaten up
Praying
Praying

Silent child
Muffling sobs
Calling
Calling

Silent child
Freshly raped
Bleeding
Bleeding

Silent children
All alone
No safety
No protection

Silent children
Crying out
Waiting for salvation
Sweet Liberation

Silent children
No hand to hold
Dying with
Every passing second

Silent children
Victims, a hostage
Silence enveloped
In their every move

Silent children
A haunting patience
Waiting
Waiting
Waiting for you

Silent children
Endless secrets
Silent children
Hidden messages
Silent children
Longing for rescue
Silent children
Lost hope and faith

Silent children
Forgotten graves
