Crumpled Picture
I have a crumpled picture
with your tattered little shoes
and I can't help but wonder
just what became of you
With your sad little eyes
and half frozen smile
Did you find your life joyful
though here a short while
I hope that you were loved
and that someone can explain
how a little boy can die
and his life not be in vain
I was born much too late
to be of help to you
But I want to hear your story
It's the least I can do
As I sit here and question
if your life held any fun
Or have I been mistaken
Were you the lucky one?
