Lost
Little boy
What are you doing?
Are you hiding
from someone
or just fooling?
You are lost you say
as you look through tears
Let me help you
We’ll find mommy
no need for fears
You were playing
hide and seek
with your siblings
You forgot how to count
so, you decided to peek
No one was there
and off you went
calling out loud
not finding anyone
as if you lost the scent
It felt like forever
you were searching
No one came to get you
Scared and now hungry
Night time approaching
Voices in the distance
Brought hope to his heart
Parents screaming joy
Their boy had been found
Never again to be apart
