Broken Boy

The boy gets up and goes to school
He struggles to make it through the day
There's so much pressure to be "cute"
It's all about looks not what you have to say
Some boys they laugh and call him names
There words they hurt so bad
They cannot see the damage and pain
There words stick with him day after day
It gets harder and harder to deal with
How will he make it
There is no way for the holes in his heart to heal
But he puts on a mask
So they don't know the things that are hidden inside
How can people be so cruel
There's so many nights he cried
It won't stop
The pain won't end
It will all stay with him for years
All he wants is one true friend
And an end to all these tears

Well this is very beautiful, such an emotionally charged piece. Its sad to think that there are so many of us who cry through the night so many times and others never have a clue that we are actually capable of feeling pain. Great write!
