BENJAMIN
Dedicated To Victims Of Child Abuse
In the street he stood
Bloody nose and bruises
Not having a childhood
A ghost of illusion
No one knew this boy
Of golden locks and tears
No one seen, No one cared
Walking by a life of fears
Who will see this child of ten?
Who will see little Benjamin?
No one will ever see
What could have been
He died alone tonight
Our poor little Benjamin
An innocent child lost
By a parent’s cold hand
A future forever lost
In violence’s quicksand
Who will remember this child of ten?
Who will remember little Benjamin?
Who will remember Sweet Benjamin?
