He stands at the strange house 4 years old.
In the same spot he was told to stay three days ago.
Mommy doesn't care
Daddy's always drunk.
Neither ever wanted the child.
Little boy stands at the spot mommy said to stay.
He's hungry but still obeys.
A lady passes and sees him there.
She asks a few questions and everything is clear.
This young man was abandoned unwanted unloved.
She took him to the adoption agency and got papers sign.
Little boy worried
Maybe
Just maybe
mommy and daddy are searching for him this time.
