Lonely

He has no smile
He even has no name
But though its not his fault
He feels he is to blame

9 years old today mummy
But you seem not to know
Would it just be better
If it was me that had to go

I don't know what Ive done
But I'm sorry for your hurt
I love you so much mummy
Even though you treat me like dirt

Why do you hate me so mummy?
Ive tried to be quiet and good
Ive Even kept out your way mummy
I even went without food

I'm sitting in the corner invisible
I don't want you to know I'm there
I see your beautiful eyes mummy
And your long brown hair

Why won't you just love me?
Each night this is what I pray
But still god won't help me
My world seems to turn Grey

The darkness is falling mummy
All i want is a cuddle
But as you walk on by me
My tears fall down in a puddle

The dark is here and I'm scared
I want to know its OK
That the boogieman isn't here
But you only stay away

Mummy I need you so much
But I know you don't need me
I made your life a mess mummy
I want to say I'm sorry

He sits there in the corner
Shivering, filled with shame
He's only 9 years old
But thinks he is to blame
