Out On Your Own MAG
Trying to keep up with the gang,
but failing each time,
he wanders away feeling sad.
Looking for something to do
he finds an older boy nearby,
silently listening.
They play and play
happy in each other's company
until ...
His little gang returns
and says, "Can we play, too?"
He lets them
because he knows how it feels
to be out on your own.
