Still just a child

He's grown over the years

1...2...3...4...

From baby to toddler
Toddler to child

5...6...7...8...

Constantly learning about the world
Both the good and bad

9...10...11...12...

He had loving parents
A loving family
But that doesn't matter anymore

13...14...

He had a happy life
Yet suddenly he was sad
Hating everything, hating himself

15...16...

People asked what was wrong
Why he was so depressed
Was something wrong at home
Was someone hurting him

17...18...

But he always said no
It wasn't something someone could fix
It wasn't about anyone
Anyone but himself

19...20...

Life carried on
He learned to hide his despair
But he was constantly suffocating

21...

Because he has grown over the years
But he's lost in the world
He lost himself

Because he has grown over the years
But he's still just a child
