A/N: So this is just a short poem on a character from The Outsiders. I was in the mood of writing poems, so I wrote a poem. What a surprise. I hope you like. ;p

Disclaimer: I don't like saying this because it shouldn't be true, but...Okay fine, I do not own The Outsiders. There I said it. Happy now.


The Story of a Boy

He may not have done the best of things

But he did the best that he could bring

He put our lives before himself

Even though he was not in the best of health


He was more than just a broken boy

He brought us love, hope, joy

He had a gift that I can't explain

Which made him more than someone plain


He was more than my best friend

He was my brother and that fact will never end

He always knew just what to say

Which kept us together day after day


He never complained when you brought out your feelings

No matter what of which he was dealing

He always knew just how to act

And that is just the plain, hard fact


He was more than just a broken boy

He brought us love, hope, joy

The memory of him will never fade

We will always remember Johnny Cade


A/N: I hoped you liked it. I could say that this was in Ponyboy's POV 'cause I was using "I" it the poem.

(Just a reminder: There is box down there that is hungry for you thoughts. Just click it and type what you think. It will make the box happy. :p ) Please review and fav.
