He was the boy no one wanted
Small and afraid
No one at all to love him
Only himself to blame
What did I do?
I was just born
Why do you hate me?
Why all the scorn?
Night after night
Day after day
In silence as he weeps
The boy no one wanted
Reaches out to thee
She was the girl that no one wanted
Small and afraid
No one to love her
What did I do?
I was just born
Why do you hate me?
Why all the scorn?
Night after night
Day after day
In silence she weeps
The girl that no one wanted
Reaches out to thee
The unwanted exist
On the street
Dark alleys
Empty lots
The unwanted exist in big cities
As well as small town
The unwanted exist where child abuse abounds

This was so sad Tony...I noticed that you write a lot about children....you must have at least one, right? I have 9 nieces and nephews and I'm gay so ill never have a child of my own...but reading stuff like this really makes me want to adopt....when I get married...which, at the rate I'm going might not ever happen..anyway, very inspiring piece of writing here...it really makes me think twice about many things...
Thank you
