Jimmy

Little jimmy cried a lot
he was only ten
jimmy tried to leave this place
he tried it with a pen

little jimmy screamed a lot
with a gag tied round his mouth
jimmy wished that his dad would stop
and leave him on the couch

little jimmy hurt a lot
his body was just so frail
jimmy wished he had a mom
to tell him fairy tales

little jimmy dreamed a lot
he dreamed of a family like ours
jimmy knew it was just a dream,
that he had his own real scars

little jimmy was so grown up
more than me or you
jimmy had experienced things
that we will never go through

little jimmy cried a lot
he was only ten
little jimmy left this place
his dad gave him the pen.
