His And Her Daughter/son

I plead with you not to shame refusing being called an orphan all because you have lost your dear mother and father to a part of the universe you are yet to belong
Have you not a soul?
Have you not a heart that still strives to love regardless of the countless times it has been shattered
Of what do you lack to earn such a priceless label?

I kneel before you to not let the world excavate you from your human tribe because of the love you feel is lost
Why accapt a tag to a place where you will be taken advantage of?
Do they wish to torture you because you have no one to run to?

I pray you do not grow numb to such disrespect
Dear His And Her Daughter Or Son
You are not an orphan
Let's rule the world and forbid this priceless label
You are not an orphan!!

Poet's note: All the children who have lost their mothers and fathers and feel cannot go on because they are called "orphans". It's not the end of the world you parents are not gone but they are there dancing to the beat of your heart. Don't end it for that will break them too
