My heart is bigger than my might
I am brave though I am small
Every day I face grief and pain
Though I am only two feet tall
I see things a child shouldn't see
And I am no stranger to sorrow
My father's dead, my mother's gone
I have no hope for a better tomorrow
Sometimes the others overlook me
Because I am not very strong
Sometimes I feel worthless
And feel like just a tag a long
I can put up a courageous shell
Feistiness hides my fear
He makes me feel as though
I cannot shed one tear
But a child cannot help it
When the going gets tough
A child can only see so much blood
Before he wants to scream enough
For their sakes I will be brave
And for my own heart too
Until this weary war is over
There is little else I can do
