Little One


Sweet angelic child, With the eyes of a doe, Satiny chocolate brown hair, And a heart of gold. Where did your innocence go? Oh how far you have come, From that chubby cheeked wonder My little follower turned into a monster Destroying everything in your path Like an enraged animal, but I still love you. Yet the rage in your eyes grows Freezing over your caring soul Leaving you a shell, a husk, of a boy Nothing but a body with a broken hear, But I have faith in you. One day you will defeat these demons That taunt, tease, and torment you I hope and pray for the day, Those pitch fork wielding bullies Clamp their mitts into someone else’s mind Reviving your innocence Giving me that sweet natured one back The one with the truthful eyes The one I called “little one” Please oh please return the “Little one”
