This is the last piece on slavery, and it will blow your mind, after reading it.

The Leaves of Time

Every child is like a seed thrown into time, 

Naked at birth, without no dime,

Bound by genes and nature 

to have the mother or fathers feature.

Every child grow with time 

gain knowledge of what's true and what's a crime

Either by learning or by experience 

Conditioning of its mind with evidence 

Every Child dreams with time 

of a great future, to own something called "mine"

Create imagination with perfect plan

but life happens and it becones a man 

Every Child works with time

To have food and to own a dime 

drop fantasies and face reality 

cause dreams only end in poverty

Every Child Loves with time 

a soul mate to share the remaining time 

Partner in life's future journey 

Or just someone to call honey

Every Child ages with time 

As it slowly comes to the end of the line 

either filled with peace or with regrets 

for the many dreams, It was forced to neglect 

Every Child dies with time 

end of Its days, end of its time 

To meet the creator of all the earth

One True God who owns all of time.

Writers Note: Every Child in this piece is a symbolism of a transition one has to make from birth to dirt(death), forgive my use of it, but in the great schemes of things we were all made As Adam (Genesis 5:2)
