Sad Little boy

Sad Little boy

A Poem by Joey Nizz

Once i knew a boy who loved to draw
He drew pictures that no one ever saw
He was very artistic late in the night
In his bathroom out of anyone's sight
He kept a secret no one knew
He didn't tell a single soul and his gallery grew
His drawings were different, no paper nor pen
But needed a bandage every now and then
We stood by the river under the stars
He rolled up his sleeves to show me his scars
Felt really embarrassed and looked down at his shoe
Than I rolled up my sleeves and whispered "I draw too"

I've used the word 'powerful' in a few reviews already, but I'm tempted to use it again. Once again you have produced a powerful and thought provoking piece. Good job Joey :)

Thank you very much! i really appreciate it :)
This is lovely, and quite emotional.
If it's alright I might correct a few grammar mistakes?

"I" should have a capital letter, "In his bathroom", "his gallery grew", "His drawings were different", "to show me his scars", "looked down at his shoe".

Again, I really enjoyed this poem. There's true sensitivity behind these words. I loved, loved the last two lines. Well done. :)
