Book III: To Break the Silence
Chapter IV: With Eyes Wide Open

Eyes Wide Open

I want people to see…
People must see…
With eyes wide open
People must see
how many children have been hurt,
the long lasting effects of abuse,
that children must be free and have wings to fly,
that children must have hope and security to grow,
that children must have courage and not be afraid to live.

People MUST see
With eyes wide open.
