Once Upon A Time...

in the hospital room
where our story begins
a baby is born
to learn the outs and ins

as a young child
he was quite fair
everyone liked him
even played with his hair

he became an adult
like all others
he found new friends
he thought them as brothers

he met a girl
thought she was pretty
got married, moved in
and had a few kiddies

but you see he was hurt
damaged, one could say
this hurt the family
it grew worse by the day

the family he made
now split in two
sadness overcame him
drowned and "unlike you"

he thought he was better
for a short while
but then it grew worse
horror struck every mile

he thought he was alone
so he closed his storybook
if only had knew people cared
if he had only taken a look.

The End.
