These Words Scream

Wishing he didn't...

A heart of ice
A story so sad
A beaten child
Forced into rags
Skin like winter
Burning my numb
Chilled to the core
Never been touched
By what we know
As love
Never taken root
That's why he's so cold
No hope
No love
No dreams
No will
Nothing
Empty canvas
Empty is this boys life
But full of things one cannot imagine
Full of hatred
Full of regret
The pain is brimming over the top
Why is it his father will never stop
Would you notice
Would you care
Would you even dare to share
To look this boy in the yes
And tell him
He should just die?
That's the truth
He's better off dead
He's scarred for life
His soul you cannot mend
Heart broken
And full of hate
Desperate to escape from this place
Sadly this boy just stays alone
Always wishing he didn't have to go home
