ON A YOUNG BOYS FACE
AS HE WONDERS WHAT HE'S DOING
IN SUCH A DARK PLACE

EVERYTHING IS NEW
AND EVERYONE IS A STRANGER
HE'S NOT SURE WHAT IS SAFE
AND WHAT IS DANGER

ALL THE OTHER KIDS
RUN AROUND AND PLAY
BUT THIS LITTLE BOY PRAYS
HE DOESN'T HAVE TO STAY

HE'S NOT COMPLETLY ALONE
HE STILL HAS BIG BROTHER
STILL HE WANTS TO GO HOME
STILL HE WANTS HIS MOTHER

FOR THE PAST THREE NIGHTS
HE'S CRIED HIMSELF TO SLEEP
HAVING MADE MEMORIES
HE 'LL NEVER WISH TO KEEP

HE KNEELS DOWN TO PRAY
NOT SURE WHERE TO BEGIN
SO HE JUST BEGS GOD
TO BRING HIM HOME AGAIN [comments] => 5 [counter] => 153 [topic] => 65 [informant] => outlaw_mutiny [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 21 [ratings] => 7 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => toughstuff )

Very sweet, gentle, but I wouldn't use caps it's kind of hard on the eyes, otherwise a great write.
