Youthful Fool
August 30, 2022
I’m a child
I’m young and inexperienced
I’m naive and guidable
Easy to fool
Easy to lie to
For lies will always be truth to me
I just want to be taken care of
Someone to care for me as much
As I care about everyone else
Someone that will notice
That my eyes are dark not because of nature
But because the hope, lights and life
Has been drained out
And not even the sun can give them light
My eyes hurt all the time
I grew before I knew
I was pushed into the world with no parachute
I took a hard fall
And I never got to learn how to catch someone else
So all I can do is stand there
And watch them fall
Hope they will accept my help to cure their wounds
Learn how to rate their pain
That is the best I can do
Until I’m able to fix what others broke
