Amy Johnson Poet Rhyme

Empty Sorrow, Dreary Tomorrow

Filled with empty sorrow
He dreads what’s to come tomorrow.

A smile on his face
You may think he’s happy but that’s not the case

He’s trapped in a room with no color
He doesn’t see why he should bother.

His family tries to intervene
But it’s not as easy as it seems.

A needle in hand he strikes another vein
It erases all of his unresolved pain.

His little brother and sister sit here and wonder
What’d it be like to have a clean brother
