LITTLE BOY

Little Boy
With a big heart
Gives it to those in need
Yet none for himself

Little Boy
Surrounded by tragedy
Trying to catch a break
Smiling all the way
through

Little Boy
Becoming numb
Cares too much
Wishing he wouldn’t

Little Boy
Focus on the good.
I know youre feeling
rough
But you’re making it
through.

Little Boy
Take your time
Healing is a process
You’ll turn out fine.

Little Boy
I know you feel sick
But what you have
Does not define you.
