Little Boy And Little Girl

Little boy.

You are too young to feel shame, too young to take blame; blame for the tears.

Too old to cry, too old to lie; lie about fears.

Little girl.

You are too young to be pretty, too young to feel pity; pity for this world.

Too old to shine, too old to whine; whine and feel hurt.

Little boy and little girl. That time will come; to feel, to see, to breathe, to flee.

Until then, just be.
