If I could

I wish I could save you
From the fire that rages on everyday
Hold your arms and carry you away
So I'm sorry that I cannot be there
I have no army
No navy
I'm stuck at a stand still
Helplessly waiting
I want to set you free
So you can open your eyes
Without the dust covering it
I want you to smile
Knowing that the whole world is yours
I want to  feed you
So your belly never aches
I want you to strive for your dreams
Become anything you set out to be
I want you to know , you are loved
So your heart beats in a tune
To make you dance under the stars
And wish for a better world
I want you to experience  life
But I may never have that chance
You're stuck in that hell storm
With no one to guide you
The world is just silent as you cry
The tears that flooded the oceans
Yet no one hears your cries
I'm sorry
For not being able to change the world
So you could just live
Live to breathe
Live to roam the lands
I'm sorry
One day you'll be free
And we'll all rejoice
