I knew a boy
I will not say his name
Because drawing his memory
Will only draw the rain clouds out,
-
I knew a boy
His smile was the biggest
His eyes were the brightest
But his demons were the worst
-
I knew a boy
Who reached his limit
As anyone would
He eventually succumbed
-
I knew a boy
Who had his parents witness their child die,
Before they passed away
Burying their baby boy
-
I knew a boy
I know him no more
The last I saw of him,
They closed the casket
-
It was a gloomy day
To know a boy
Who did not
Wish to be known.
