He’s still there;
the
kid with history
good
times and bad
success
and failure
hard
times and triumph.
He’s still there;
who
he is because of who he was
proud
he overcame
glad
in who he is
glad
in what he’s done.
Yes, he’s still there;
in
isolation and crowds
in
isolation IN the crowds
with
friends – or not
in
confidence – or fear.
Yes, he’s still there;
the
kid who’s quite afraid
who
fears accusations of wrong
who
oft feels guilt even absent wrong
who
isolates himself by that fear
That frightened kid; yes, he’s still there.
