The boy lies on his sorrowful stained sheets <br />As he cries himself to sleep <br />He hears the angry screams coming from the kitchen <br />He covers his ears with his trusty pillow and hand <br /> <br />The boy begins to dream <br />He dreams of a world that is only true in dreams <br />Then he awakens with a jolt from a bang, <br />With his father screaming with an angry passion <br /> <br />The boy screams to the fierce pitches of a belt <br />He did nothing but yet he is blamed <br />He runs to find the woman he called mother, <br />Dodging all the bloody trash on the floor <br /> <br />There she is on the so called floor <br />The boy gives her one last hug <br />Knowing that it is the last one for a long time, <br />Then he hears one last thing, BANG!<br /><br />megan miller<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-dead-boy/
