The quiet boy

Inspired by lonely, sad kids, and families that have crumbled.

A sinner, a saint

Covered black paint

A word, a crime

Evil n’ prime

 

Blood stained lips

Erratic strips

Heels N’ smoke

But Nothings spoke

 

A liar and thief

Pleasure and grief

With Heartless love

And a push n’ shove

 

Red hands

And Without plans

The man with excuses

Who abuses and abuses

 

Coming home late

Half past eight

Bottles and stains

Throbbing veins

 

Lights and sirens

Red and blue

It’s a daily thing

Nothing new

 

There’s a lonely boy

Afraid and scared

His parents are mean

And he’s never seen
