A Young Boy With a Brave Heart

This poem is dedicated to a person I know who had been abused and abandoned by his parents when he was a young boy, but with his hard working and great mind, now he becomes a very successful business person... A young boy Was sitting alone on the road In the cold Shivering Big innocent eyes Were full of forlorn People were walking on the road With a glance at him Children were held in their parents' arms Those happy smiles Were so strange to him Tears was in his eyes Coldness was on his face The color of the world Under the Sun In his eyes Was pale He was struggling to find A way to survive Nobody in the world with care Only the night wind kissing his face And Moonlight whispering to his ears His body became cold So did his heart No one can touch The world was like a cursed land A huge net Covering his heart With darkness Without warmth He began to cry inside Nobody cared in the world dry He dreamed to be strong like the earth To be free like the sky Surviving became the courage With a sensitive brave heart Whatever he accepted was for him Whatever he rejected shall never touch him There was a divine purpose For him To grow And today he smiles Embraces the World with his sensitive love

Nice poem Yunyan... I think you should revisit the line: 'Whatever he rejected shall never touched him'. Cheers
