Favorite Quote:
When I look at my room, I see a girl who loves books. - John Green


Velvet ebony hands
Feet that sway and jive
From side to side
Soulful deliverance
Of heartbreak and pain
Power and poise with a mic. in his grip
Superstar prodigy on puppet strings
A boy never to be a man
Stuck in the magic of Neverland
Born to never die
But dying just to live
Can't you hear him calling?
Crying in the dark
He whispers
"Have you seen my childhood?"


The author's comments:
I was inspired by all kids who never had the opportunity to have a fulfilled childhood. Whether it be because of a career or because of a disease, some find it hard to fill the space that the joys of childhood should have filled. This one's for Mikey!
