The Quiet Boy

There's a boy down the street
He rarely ever speaks
His parents are divorced
And he just moved to a new town

At school he is the outcast
Which only makes things worse
No one wants him around
They believe that he's a freak

No one knows the pain he feels
Therapy won't help
Because he never has support
Not even from his parents

He knows no one that is like him
He believes that he is all alone
That no one wants him around
Just a simple hello would help
But no one will talk to him
They just keep walking when they see him

A little girl of age five walks down the street
She sees the quiet boy
And walks up to him
She says "Hey mister, are you okay?"
The boy looks up, and smiles
The first smile he has smiled in a long time

From then on the boy always tried to stay on the bright side of life
But he had his struggles
But life always comes with it's struggles
And he will always remember the little girl
Who said hello.
