Children’s Village Gives Boys Hope

Time flies quick
You can never catch up with it

My eyes
back to my eyes
back to my eyes

Everything I see is wise
Connect to beautiful things

I see
Because my eyes are
powerful

Just like my brain
talking about love

I love my eyes
I see clearly
just like the window shines

I Wish He Was Here

By Geraldo R.

I wish he was here
I wish he was here

I wish he was right beside me.

I wish he could see me learn so well.
I wish he could see me right now,

see me older.

I remember how he used to love me
very much.

I remember he had green eyes.
I remember he could have been a great father.

He would have been there for me.
I wish he could see me grow now.

I wish I could go to the park with him.
I wish I could go to the park with him.

I wish he could see me read.
I wish he could see me be a good father.

I wish he could see me be somebody.
