What it takes.

young poem

 

What It takes..

               It takes the life out of a human being. It takes eyes non-human to see

It takes a smile off a mothers face. And takes a prisoner to escape.

                        It takes more than just a word. It takes more than a flock of birds.

It takes five pieces of bread. And takes the brain out of a head.

                               It takes too many moments. Taken without permission- stolen.

It takes a full heart. And a full stomach.

                                     It takes the form of a creature which I don’t know the name.all i know is that;

  It takes and takes. And takes it again.
