Living in a world where monetary barriers separate people,

Trying to get past them.

Holding true to principles and beliefs,

Even while the world is trying to break them down.

Only a child, just turned 13.

Pain and death around every corner,

Innocence burned away.

Friends taken by death,

Wanting to go with them.

Only a child, just turned 13.

Parents passed away,

Trying to stay together.

Siblings dropped out,

Working to make ends meet.

Only a child, just turned 13.

Hiding in books,

Movies and shows.

Lying to make everything alright,

Pretending it’s all okay.

Only a child, just turned 13.
