Shattered about, from the inside out

With a spirit like that of a lion

But, courage had since left the house

He had an unbreakable fear, in his heart he held dear

And so close to tears, crying out for his father

Fading memories of a past he could not alter

Indefinite voices of a man he never knew

Not far away, but too far to make do

So instead he just paces as his very heart races

With absolutely no other clue

Cub Scout, Cub Scout, no where to run to

Another memory faded…So many, yet, so few

Anger roars at the tip of his tongue

Howling out to the world, “what have you done?”

Abandoned, forsaken, your very own son?

There is no place like home, or so I’ve been told

But in a world with no home, everything just seems cold

And this fur coat just makes me feel bold

Because on the inside, there’s no heart to hold

I’m here and all alone because everything is gone

But soon this little Cub Scout won’t be so young

So, for now I’ll just run, and I’ll run, and I’ll run

As fast as I can out towards the sun

Because one day I’ll be that shining star

The little twinkle in the night

A cub scout so young, but yet, so bright

And as one last tear falls from this eye

Just another vague fantasy, fading into the sky

Another lost hope, that one last goodbye…
