Immaculate Child
Joseph Budenholzer
You were born out of time
Fell out of space
And what a pretty face
And the other children stared
They were all aware
Something made you strange
When I look into the mirror
I see your shining face
Eyes burning bright
And I trace the line of tears
Rivers down your face
Smiling like stars
Inside your eyes
The telling sign
Of what you believe
Your wisdom is fine
The crown that you wear
Immaculate child
Sometimеs I think about how it is
And how I should have seen
But I shouldn't waste the timе
So I hesitate in time
Turn to face myself
Once again in the mirror
Inside your eyes
The telling sign
Of what you believe
Your wisdom is fine
The crown that you wear
Immaculate child
