I do not want to see him As just another dim-eyed Figure fading into the crowd Of the morning scamper To burdening occupations That, would break my heart I have watched this boy   This man   Assemble the spare parts As sadness dripped down his chin And his, Was an obvious struggle The pain was not my own Yet it consumed me To the point of harbouring Irrational guilt In the midst of misfortune That seeped down from the Forefathers we share All his days His blithesome temperament Never withered With all this I hold All I forget to cherish That someone Should have been him The one standing on these heights.

I do not want to see him As just another dim-eyed Figure fading into the crowd Of the morning scamper To burdening occupations That, would break my heart I have watched this boy   This man   Assemble the spare parts As sadness dripped down his chin And his, Was an obvious struggle The pain was not my own Yet it consumed me To the point of harbouring Irrational guilt In the midst of misfortune That seeped down from the Forefathers we share All his days His blithesome temperament Never withered With all this I hold All I forget to cherish That someone Should have been him The one standing on these heights.
