I seen nim again that sad looking man... He stared at me with wonder.... Or was it disgust i cannot tell.... Maybe he should clean up... The world will hate him less.... And a brushing of teeth will allow him to get close.... Looks like he has enough barriers... He is not the suitable shade of accepted... His tattoos make him a dangerous felon.... The lost look in his eyes means he cant be trusted.... If the rest of the world could see what i see...... That he tries harder and harder everyday.... Because his daughters names are tattooed on his neck..... They are the reason hes tired... 14 hr days leave every late night worth it... Because a midnite playdate is his only reward.... A lonely soul who recently lost his mom.... his dad.... And how a friend may be all he needs.... But burying his last one four yrs ago has made him scared....... Now he is facing a world without any back up...... He is the only protection for a family that means everything.... And has a girl who maKes him feel like nothing.... Someday i hope to not see him so down.... But as smile at him... I realize this whole time... That sad man in the mirror is actually me....
