Children in Arms

For adult survivors of childhood abuse, lets stop that cycle of abuse as a gift to our children. I want my daughter to have a safer, sweeter journey.

You are not alone, my sister in arms
Let's tackle the past together
And find a place where no one can harm
Brave little birds of a feather

A place of peace
To finally weep
Let go and release
Relax and sleep

You are not alone, my brother in arms
I know you're taxed a heavy toll
A burden of silence, shame and harm
May you find a place to heal and let go

A place of light
And laughter too
Where dreams take flight
For me and you

We are not alone, children in arms
So much stronger than our betrayers
We're super troopers that sound the alarm
As soldiers of peace and hate slayers

This torch I'll light and hold for you
And help you leap and land
You'll watch my back and light my view
Together we will stand

(So much stronger than our betrayers)
