Image Bearers

Laughing and pointing fingers,
You can't hear, but you see.
The pain you feel lingers,
But you mean the world to me.

Jumping and dancing around,
You can't walk, but you watch.
The longing you feel tears you down,
But one day you'll dance with me.

Growing and growing inside,
You can't defend yourself, but you are alive.
The injustice of your death destroys me inside,
But you are full of life and belong to me.

Loved and cared for,
You are important to me.
To them you may be forgotten,
But to me you're special and created in the image of me.
