~ Little Lost Boy ~



      Poor little lost boy,
      So sullen and blue,
      What in the world
      Has happened to you?


      To make you so angry,
      To make you do things,
      That get you into trouble,
      What thoughts do you think?


      My heart was broken,
      For you today,
      As I saw you in shackles,
      Being taken away.


      Jail is your destiny,
      For what you've done,
      Please look at your life,
      And where it's gone.


      You're just still a baby,
      Only sixteen...a child;
      What pain have you endured,
      To make you so wild?


      Poor little lost boy,
      So sullen and blue,
      What in the world,
      Has happened to you?


      I'll never stop praying,
      Until you fall to your knees,
      I go before God,
      For your life I plead.


      Yes, my heart was broken,
      For you today,
      As I saw you in shackles,
      Being taken away.

      But nothing is impossible...
      ...With God.
