CHILD LABOR

It saddens my heart every now and then,
Knowing of the struggle and pain of the child laborer
The troubles of the little girl hawking on the street
The sorrows of the little boy in deep seas
Some are starving to death; the survival movement
Others are lost in the woods hunting to feed
Exposed to every threat and danger posed by greed
Why should they fend but for themselves?
Was it their fault to be born without a silver spoon?
Or is it simply their undecidable destiny?

It thins and wrecks my breath to the brim,
Understanding the indisputable fact
That the victims of the mess are innocent
Child Labor must be highly incriminated
Because it stands to ruin the future we long for
It is the reason we fail as a nation sometimes
It is one of the problems everyone want to see solved
So don't you ever hesitate my brethren
Take the chance to make a difference  now,
Say, Stop Child Labor Now

So who cares about the brighter future?
The kind we want for our dear planet?
What about the hopes we invest in the children?
Who cares protecting them with faith and pride?
We want a future as bright as the daylight,
We want people full of good grooming,
We want citizens swimming in education
And only the children of today are promising enough
Only they can we trust for a better future
And we can only achieve this with education
