Sad Is The Kid

-Sad Is The Kid-
by
Keaton Foster



Sad is the kid
Who lives his life
Under such unbearable strife
Those who should love him
Don’t
Nothing is his fault
Except being born that is
What a hell of a thing
To be convicted of
They punish him
Disguising it as lesson
That must be learned
They will not relent
Until they are confident
He knows their everything
Uneducated at times he seems
Naively he still dreams
He wants so much more
Unfortunately such wants
Will be laid to waste
By the needs of others
They will crucify him
Then one day
After they have inflicted
The greatest amount of harm
They will turn and walk away
Leaving him so alone
Sad is the kid
That they made
Such a mistake
Cannot be allowed
To go unpunished
Sad is the kid
That must truly pay…
