Boy
There is poetry in the movement of my lost loneliness
There is a dream in this boy’s heart
And a story in his eyes,
There is pain in his words
And death in his smile
And a lost ness that on one can see
There is glitter on his eyelids
And his eyes shine blue
And the dust pores though his skin
Like flowers through the dirt.
“I am a boy, I am my mother’s son and I am covered in dirt and glitter.
I feel the cold winter morning on my skin,
My body like ice”
This boy feels cold inside and there is no happy ever after that he can see,
He is lost, alone and feels no beat in his heart.
He waits and waits for the body of a man to caress his skin.
