We watch as we push the little boy to the side

We watch as he cried up to the sky

Yet we do nothing to help nor comfort him

As we know next to nothing about him

All we know is his name and age

And that his parents went to an early grave

He lives alone, in this run-down apartment

In the block were gang wars often happen

He's seen all alone without a friend

In an empty park all alone again

No one to help, nor shoulder his cries

He's more mature than what meets the eyes

So the next time you see him cry

Go over and just say hi

You can see the difference in his eyes

Those that will turn and make you say 'oh my!'

The eyes that turned from sadness and sorrow

To eyes of joy, that held the sadness of absolute zero.
