Those Who Commit Crimes Against Children

Those who commit crimes against children will surely be made to pay If the Law does not catch them then Karma will one day Self esteem they do erode and self confidence destroy In the mind of their young victim the innocent girl or boy. The abuse of children by an adult surely a crime of shame Not many worse crimes than it that one could wish to name Their innocence stolen from them in their most vulnerable years For the victims of child abuse humanity sheds tears. The abuse of a child on human innocence an attack And innocence when stolen cannot be given back Some of those who commit such crimes as children may have known abuse But that for their behaviour not a good enough excuse. Any crime against a child is a hard crime to forgive And those guilty of child abuse with their sins have to live And though on another human being one ought not to wish ill If the Law does not punish them then Karma surely will.
