Who will mourn the lost boy?
Gone to play with Peter Pan,
He will never grow up and
Never grow old.
If no one will mourn him
Then I will,
If no one will miss him
Then I do.
A light extinguished by a heart consumed by darkness
I will cry for him
I will search for him in heaven
I will value him
Tommy, Nathan, Alex, James;
Anything but John Doe.
A precious child fallen through the cracks of the world.
