Little Boy
Written by: Ronald W. Clark, Jr.

My pain begins so deep within
Within my heart, within my soul
For as a child my innocence was stole
So I've caused more heartache
across the miles
I've brought more tears
than I brought smiles
Yes, even as a little boy,
I brought more tears
than I brought joy
And yet it seems
like such a bad dream
But that's the life,
the life I've seen.
For there's s much pain
deep within,
That I just touched
on where it began.
For even as a little boy,
I felt more pain
than I felt joy.

Beautiful .... Souls that collide in the dark are the most beautiful of souls. Just as yours collided today with mine. Without a name without a face your words became your voice that spoke to my heart. Our bodies might be held prisoner, but never our minds never our passion. It's all anyone truly has and you express your passion well. It has been a pleasure to read your words. Beautiful Poison
