I carry picture in my pocket...
A picture of a family...
I found them in the newspaper...
And though I do not know them...
I figure it's better to have a family in my pocket...
Then to have no family at all!
It gives me hope that maybe someday I'll have a family that's for real...
A family I can touch and hug...
And hold their hands and see them in real life!
You see I am an orphan...
With no family of my own...
All I have is a paper picture...
I long for so much more!
Please, please if you are reading this...
Please look into my face!
Although I seem like just a picture here...
Of a boy you do not know...
I really am a real live boy...
With feelings just like yours!
I have eyes that sparkle and a great big smile...
But my heart has an empty place...
A place that longs for a family...
A family bigger than my pocket...
A family that's more than a dream in my heart...
A family that's really mine!
Please, will you be my family?
I'm more than just a picture on this page...
I'm a real live boy and I'd love to be your son!
Please consider me!
