I. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />I would say something, <br />I would scream if I could. <br />I am a child afraid to cry out. <br />Because I know without a doubt that <br />No one is listening for my shouts. <br /> <br /> <br />II. <br /> <br /> <br />I am most afraid to cry out <br />I am a child trapped in the <br />Shell of a man that has never <br />Been able to grow beyond those <br />Terrible days in my life <br />Where I was set aside and <br />Told I was no one's <br />Wanted son.<br /><br />Mahfooz Ali<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/font-color-red-a-child-want-to-say-something/
