He Changed My Life

A few years ago I met a boy,
Who changed my life indeed.
He always had a smile on his face,
But a friend is what he did need.

He always sat alone at lunch,
But I couldn't figure out why.
So one day I sat down with him
And he began to cry.

I didn't know what to do,
This had never happened before.
So I Hugged him tight and didn't let go,
And then he cried some more.

I asked him what was wrong,
As he wiped the tears from his eyes,
He said that he had felt alone,
And needed a friend by his side.

I talked to him all through lunch,
About a lot of stuff
Eventually I noticed the scars under his skin.
And his life that sounded tough.

I could tell that he ahd been hurt real bad.
But he still knew how to smile.
So now everytime that I am sad
I think about that boy for a while.
