    A Little Boy's Search For Understanding

    Please little boy
    Tell me whats on mind
    It my help
    To allow you to unwind

    Its ok, its all right
    To say what you feel
    To express yourself
    Those emotions are real

    Does it hurt
    Do you feel bad
    To think about
    The loss we had

    I am here
    So let me know
    Tell me everything
    So it can help you grow

    Its allright
    To shed a tear
    Don't keep it to yourself
    Even though you hold it dear

    Little boy of mine
    I know it makes you sad
    Please open up
    And tell your dad

    I know your confused
    I know don't know why
    So you ask yourself
    Why did he die

    You talk about him
    Allmost every day
    You love him
    Even though he has gone away

    Why it happened
    I dont even know
    If I did
    I would tell you so

    So sit here
    Please talk to me
    It may help
    For you to see

    The facts of life
    Spoken in a simple way
    A little more understanding
    That can help today

    Words of truth
    A little peace
    Maybe then
    The pain can decrease

    Take my hand
    I love you so
    Please be happy
    Just live and grow

    It's somwthing now
    You want to cry about
    So open up
    Let those emotions out

    With time
    You will understand
    What has happened
    My little man

    So today
    We sit and share
    I will talk soft
    And show you I care

    This is my job
    To help you through this
    To explain the feelings
    About the person we miss

    Don't feel ashamed
    It's allright
    I will be here all day
    If need be through the night

    So let it out
    Ease your pain
    Let those tears
    Fall like rain

    Did it help
    I hope so
    Just know
    I love you so
    D.B. Johnson

    tpp long that time short and to the point I like those king some just go too long for me.

    Poetry is either something that lives like fire inside you or else it is nothing, an empty formalized bore around which pedants can endlessly drone their notes and explanations.
