gifted with the mind but not the mouth
a silent genius
waits until the day comes
when someone talks to him

years pass with no answer
he trudges through life hating every passing minute
all he wanted was a friend

his parents didn't care, they were drug addicts
and soon he became one too
he dropped out of school
left everything he had
and forgot about everything in the world

he left his pregnant girlfriend with not a penny behind
then he went back to her and killed her
but he let the baby stay
not wanting to leave the baby alone
he took her with him
he had no money, but he tried to save her
soon to be called Katie, loved him
and he found what he was looking for
a friend
as Katie grew up, she adored him

he got a job
quit drugs
started again
a new man
people loved him
he got married
to a beautiful girl
who he wouln't leave until his death
Katie loved them
and he realized that love was what this world needed
and that was what he had
he lived a happy life and he helped everyone out
love is all you need
