Sitting in a corner,
I watched people,
As I went unseen.

Running my gaze,
I found a young child,
Crying silent tears.

I got up,
And approached,
The cute little boy.

"What is it?",
I asked the crying,
Little sad boy.

"My parents left me";
I waited for more,
But the poor boy kept quiet.

"And?",I prodded,
He sulked;
But gave in.

"They left me,
To the demons",
He sniffed.

"What demons?";
"The demons of,
The world."

"What are they?";
"Bribery,lies,hate,
Love,fear, murder."

"Why did they leave you?";
"Because they got fed up,
Of each other."
