A Young Boy's Tears

A little boy walked quickly by, headed down Catherine Street, crying, nearly howling, eyes narrowed, clutching tears -
I noticed he was walking on his toes. Spying more carefully, I noticed he had no shoes on, just demi-socks.
Had someone stolen his shoes?
And now he had to face his parents.
Ah, the tears.
