I was 3 years old

I had nightmares for weeks

About a monster

Trying to get me

My dad keep saying

It’s going to be ok

Don’t Worry Child

I was 5 years old

First day of kindergarten

I came home crying

I said Daddy the kids

At school are mean

He said it’s ok

Beautiful

Don’t Worry Child

I was 9 years old

I found my dad crying

Three days later

He died

My mom said

Don’t Worry Baby

It’s going to be ok

I was 14 years old

I had enough

I woke up in the hospital

Screaming

Crying

It was 3 a.m.

I didn’t know where

I was

The nurse came in

And said

Don’t you Worry Child

I’m still 14

And I still worry

Every day that

I won’t be here the

Next day
