A Poem: The Little Voice

This poem came out as I strummed a couple of chords on my guitar. I hope one day I can make a difference and give the little voices some power.

The Little Voice

there’s a little child
walking home
from the water well

he is tired
his feet are bleeding
no shoes to heal the sores

maybe someone can save him

does he..does he know any more?
the world that he was born into, was it..was it his fault?
is he crying? is he crying at night?
is God..is God going to listen to him?
little child, little child, little child, little child
it ain’t fair..it ain’t fair what is done
it ain’t fair..it ain’t fair what is done
power, power to the little voice
power, power to the little voice
