Ruby Red

Such loneliness

In those ruby red eyes.

I can tell he searches

For a companion maybe.

I'm here.

And I know he needs someone.

I'm watching him.

I want to be his someone.

I want to hold him,

Tell him that someone loves him.

I may be on the outside,

Looking in.

But he doesn't notice that I

See through him.

I see the small, scared boy.

I can see the

Small, scared boy

That's trapped in an

Old man's body.
