THE OUTSIDE WORLD IS SORROW

The outside world is sorrow.

A boy was shunned

And left there stunned;

He cried into tomorrow.

The Otherworld denied him.

The Forest Queen,

She watched unseen,

But let his sorrow bind him.

Forsaken by his mother,

He was ignored,

Though he implored,

And got the same from father!

Beneath the surface, gushing,

Emotions climb

When there’s a crime

You feel it burning, rushing.

The spark of life will flicker

And die and drown

In tears run down

When unloved lives get sicker.
