STOLEN INNOCENCE
By Jared Nii Tackie, Ghana, West Africa

The world has not treated me fairly,
I came not by my own accord,
But through the pleasure of some people,
Here I am, not knowing what holds good for me.

In deed the world is evil,
Even the very thing that I have to use as a recreation
Has been devastated,
Can't any body save me?
Is any body listening?
God help us.

As for the government, they are the worse offenders,
Legislatures are guilty,
For parents, they should even be sent to prison,
Oh, let someone help, to save us from exploitation,
For children are suffering,
But do not know what they are doing
