Too Young To Realize

     

Sitting in his room quietly as the time goes by
    Feeling alone and left out in a world of lies
    His mother works from morning to night
    Trying to make money like the speed of light
    His father left and was never around
    He couldn’t help but feel let down
    Having nothing to eat but a cup of noodle
    Sitting on the couch watching a game show
    Waiting for his mother to come home safely
    There was nothing that could keep him busy
    He tried playing with some game console
    Even stared at the guppies in the fishbowl
    He waited till midnight and she was still out
    Laying on couch in the dark as he blackout
    Like a pull of gravity, he fell down a dark hole
    
    His mind was confused and out of control
    From this moment, he knew he was a goner
    He helplessly feels like a coward and a loner
    Breaking into tears as he shook from fear
    If only somebody would magically appear
    To take all his pain and nightmare away
    Suddenly a dazzling light sparked his way
    As if an angel has come by to lead the road
    She whispered into his ear with a secret code
    His eyes opened wide as he listens to her voice
    Living life is a privilege and a choice
    Choose wisely as she winked to him
    Nodding his head as he gave her a grin
    He abruptly wakes up from the mysterious dream
    Only to smell a strong scent of coffee cream
    His mother smiled and greeted him with loved
    You fell asleep dear; I didn’t want to wake you up
    The loneliness had vanished into thin air
    As his mother hugged him with care
