Family

He sat there and watched the world pass him by

not a second glance

was looked his way

and that's the way he liked it.

He liked not being noticed

by others

because they would just end up hurting him

like everyone before.

This is what he had always believed

until he met

Zachary

and Brain.

Zachary preferred to be called Zacky,

Brian liked Syn

he couldn't stand to be called Brian.

They made his life better,

he had a real family now

unlike the broken home he had come from

he could laugh and smile

without it being fake and forced.

They didn't use him

like his parents had

they treated him as an equal,

well as much as they could,

he was still only sixteen.

He could be free

he could swim or learn to ride a bike

without the worry of being shot

by one of his dads

clients again.

Zacky said he had always wanted kids

but little kids annoyed him far to much

so they settled for adopting

a young teenager.

Tyler had been with them for three years

his soft blue eyes

could make you melt

from seeing the pain in them.

The pain was much less now,

he was happy

and filled with joy

that he never thought he would have

but he does and it's made all the difference in the world.

He would smile at his new memory's

and avoid his old.

His new father,

made him laugh so hard he'd cry,

scream I hate you

when he really didn't mean it

and would hold him

why he had a bad day

and needed to cry it out.

He looked through all his new

pictures

with his new friends

and smiled at them all.

Zacky and Syn were in most of them

which was perfectly fine by him

he loved them

more than life itself.
