The Path


There once was a boy born near a farm
The mama cried, bottle in her hand, head on her arm
Outside the states
they traveled so far
Arm grew stronger 
Legs run longer
Eyes go wander

Then there was that laugh
It would only repair
Fresh as mumzy's apple pie
When the nights so clear, fresh so air
1o seconds to does
travels and makes love

There once was a boy that did his best to look up
Roll with the punches
Stay in line, In this town he stayed
With the light now all around
I swore he saw the magic on that street, Heart beat
that sound it made

That little boy that looked at the stars
Wandered from the home, My dear it was so far
By now arms had a different meaning
His legs took him to new places
Heart never cease in believing
Then his heart started to question
Questioned
He would not understand yet
till they meet
We were the bravest

Quiet and Shy
His faith would not die
Till his breath flew
His secret he had
He still loves you

That indeed had the tear to wash
statutes to mend
souls to sway
and spirits of all

That that little boy last laughed 
when that shooting star past
Painted
broken by Love
that never lasts

Then one day
he saw that girl in the hall
admist the love, the worlds healed
His heart
Pieces in a puzzle
The lovely sect of art

That little boy born near a farm
grown up now and took a stand
6 moths of dinners
plethera of pizza, salsa parties
The seasons of talking
about futures uncertain
Smiles of honey
words that made the world shine
Im grateful for this romance divine
