Sweet angelic child, With the eyes of a doe,

Satiny chocolate brown hair, And a heart of gold.

Where did your innocence go?

Oh how far you have come, From that chubby cheeked wonder

My little follower turned into a monster

Destroying everything in your path

Like an enraged animal, but I still love you.

Yet the rage in your eyes grows

Freezing over your caring soul

Leaving you a shell, a husk, of a boy

Nothing but a body with a broken hear, But I have faith in you.

One day you will defeat these demons

That taunt, tease, and torment you

I hope and pray for the day, Those pitch fork wielding bullies

Clamp their mitts into someone else’s mind

Reviving your innocence

Giving me that sweet natured one back

The one with the truthful eyes

The one I called “little one”

Please oh please return the “Little one”
