Small Boy

Small boy
BIG world
The contrast is sharp,
Makes him seem unimportant, but he’s not.
Not to me, not to Reese, not to Anne Claire.

An adorable little boy,
He lived right down the street,
So fun he was to play with,
He was funny and sweet.

A voice that sounds like a smile,
A grin that lights up his face,
Grey eyes that were always sparkling,
and a laugh that made my day.

Small boy,
Big heart,
So funny,
And filled with love,
Wasn’t that far away.

Now he’s farther than ever,
In a place I cannot reach now,
But I loved him then and forever,
And now I’m lost,
Hoping to be found.

A young life,
A high price to pay,
His loss hurts like a knife,
At random times.

Small boy,
Big heart,
So funny,
And filled with love,
And he has never felt farther away.
