All People Need Love
by
Gala Ruiz Maldonado

A hug a kiss or anything...
he just wants to be loved
But today all he felt
was pain, hurt, and blood
These stories that he strives to tell
are all assumed as lies
As he falls and crawls upon the floor
and the truth is all he cries
He tries to cry and let it out
but the pain is just too strong
How come everything he says
is always wrong
They'd tell him to suck it up,
let it go, and be a man
So he hides it all, tries so hard,
and gives it all he can
His mom is gone,
his dad's too tough
No matter what he does,
it's just not good enough
