Short-Lived
Unloved and unnoticed
He fell to the ground.
For all latest news, follow The Daily Star's Google News channel. A burden for his mother -
A weakling in her eyes.
His life, so pitifully short,
Was merely one of countless.
The green eyes of a viper, vicious and hungry,
The last thing he ever saw.
For a few short days, he experienced the world.
Yet his only memory was of his crowded home.
Dying was nothing to him
As he never knew what living meant.
