Was he waiting for the call of his name,
Waiting for somebody to embrace him,
To pull him back into the warmth?
He waited in vain,
Huddled like a pigeon,
Seeking shelter from the rain.
No outstretched hand appeared,
No fairytale rescue in sight.
Oh, the ache this stirs within me
As I think of how low and alone he felt.
I saw him there, yet didn't stop;
I passed on by.
