The Boy Named Aaron

The Boy Named Aaron

A Poem by A. V. Madison

We were just small children
growing up down the street
sharing our toys and smiles
the sweetest boy I'll ever meet

We'd meet in that field each day
You'd bring your red toy truck
I'd bring my dolls and with luck
our parents would forget we were out here

Inseparable, you and I
best friends joined at the hip
Lord we'd play and run and laugh
nothing was complicated, nothing unreal

The streetlights shot out,
I'm screaming your name
The fire burns bright at your house
My mom leaves me at home to help the people

I'm watching from my window
as they bring the people out.
Some of them breathing,
some of them aren't. 

I see your face, framed with blonde hair.
I scream your name. 
You don't move. 

Your name is engraved on a rock
I place roses at your grave. 
I miss you, Aaron.
Come back.
