You hear similar stories

But not one like his

He wanted freedom

But all he did was dream

Until he realized

He can stop the pain

So he called, pleading help

And the cavalry came

He was given a home

A loving family too

And he tries his hardest

To smile it through

But that one night

He lost an irreplaceable thing

And everyday he wonders

If he can be whole again

Hurt doesn't just leave

And he hurts in his soul

And one of his biggest fears

Is he'll never be whole
