The day i was born ,
They left me in a storm ,
I wept all day ,
And cried all night ,
I tried to find my parents but there was no one in sight ,
The world for you was always bright ,
But i was in the darkness without any light ,
I lived in an orphanage ,
Where nobody paid patronage ,
They came for me ,
But did not like me ,
Life to me was a misery ,
I grew old and unemployed ,
But was not bold to face my life ,
For a few days i did survive ,
But there is a feeling that it ain't to far for me to die :(

This is a piece which I wrote visualizing myself to be this boy I so on the recreate and I tried to recreate what he was feeling probably... Also if you don't like the ending, then mate you've got to be realistic life isn't a fairy tail! I wrote what was true and it is harsh reality but one should learn to except it!
