Sickday

The fever rages deep in him
Eating him from the inside out
“Mommy I’m cold”
And he shivers inspite of himself
So helpless and pained he lives inside this shell
Closed off from world we know
And I wonder what he sees behind those forgiving eyes
A victim of a discouraging world
Who only wants to save us all
Through his faith in humanity
But first he must make it through nap time
