A lost little boy with a hijacked mind
is it love, attention or pain that you are trying to find?
You smile with trepidation and eyes full of woe
you know I love you yet you see me as your foe
I picked you up and unfolded your fears
I stroked you to dawn and absorbed your tears
If only I’d known that an attempt to save you and carry you home
would drown my own soul and leave me with no tone
I would have escaped the day and found my way
to a world where I was overtly alone.
