Child

CHILD

Child, when you play and fall
who are there to comfort you
but your parents
yet you are naughty and disobedient
Child, when you come home late
who are there to worry
but your parents
yet you rebel and detest them
Child when you are all grown up
who are there to stand by you
but your parents
yet you despise them for intruding
Child, when you have your own family
who are there to love your children
but your parents
yet you find them old and useless
Child, don’t you know
it’s your parents
who brought you up
who makes you into what you are now
yet you break their hearts
Child, don’t you know
without them, you won’t be here
