The Boy From Syria

The Boy from Syria
Made me think about life and hysteria 
The Boy from Syria 
Smiled and left me shocked 
The Boy from Syria 
Can not afford a bicycle, I didn't say I had a car
The Boy from Syria
Had not found a job yet from the time I met him last year
The Boy from Syria 
Left with a hope saying do let me know if you find something my dear 
The Boy from Syria 
Left me questioning of how ungrateful I am of all in life 
The Boy from Syria 
Froze the clock for me to find how I can be so blind 
The Boy from Syria 
Taught me how faith can be a fire and hope the air 
The Boy from Syria 
Taught me of how Truthfulness can withstand losses even there is not a buyer
