[bodytext] => In the dark alley
Of the school's hall; In the night Of day, The boy took in The punches To his face and The whispers To his heart. Once it kindles, The fire grows and Is unstoppable. First it stings Then burns and Kills. Swallowing the pain, Making a barreir From all depths Can only fence him Into the chasms Of darkness. If only tears Could wash away all Pains and problems. But instead, the Growing darkness, Stuck in all depths of the heart, Finally makes its way out. And it stings, and Burns, and kills. If we could just serve As another type Of barrier: One from the fire that's Kindling and growing. If we could just Handle the fire With more caring hands, Maybe then the fire would Begin to flicker away.
