He is just a little boy, who wants to be Superman
But instead he is forced to be a mature man
He is just a little boy, who wants to fly high
But instead his wings are cut-off from his sky
He is just a little boy, who wants to grow like a tree
But instead his roots are uprooted to left him dry
He is just a little boy, who wants to cry
But instead his tears are taken from his eye
He is just a little boy, who wants to be loved
But instead he is always judged
He's imperfect, but He tries
He is good, but He lies
He is hard on himself
He is broken & won't ask for help
He is messy but He is kind
He is lonely most of the time
He is all of this mixed up & baked in a beautiful pie
He is gone but he used to be mine...
