Dear Child

Child with no safe home

Going from family to family 

As the weeks go on

Dear Child 

Child who is scared of tomorrow 

Counting down the days and hours 

restarting when you get to a new place

Dear Child 

Child who only talks to their case worker more than thier foster family

No foster family has ever heard you speak

So they assume you are mute 

Dear child 

Child who cries when they get to a new home

Not knowing what will happen 

The unknown scares you

Dear child

Child with abandonment issues 

Who thinks awful thoughts 

thoughts like "who could ever love a orphan kid?"
