Started out young and free Kinda figured it was meant to be But stories change Lives re-arrange...I know Pictures of forgotton times Memories from the past Made mistakes and realize It all went by too fast Read the paper now and then A familiar name or two But what still seems like yesterday Was the time I had with you Lightning struck the same place twice Once with fire, once with ice Hold a hearing, state my plea The evidence here will support me When your river runs dry And your sky falls down You can't get off your merry go round Didn't I say, I'm your man When the hammer falls And your luck runs out Keep in mind without a doubt Didn't I say, didn't I say....... |

I tried to pick just one single line that I liked the most but I'd have to choose them all..  Smiles here but I guess the favourite one has to be: "Lightning struck the same place twice Once with fire, once with ice" HUGS ------------------ There are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle, or the mirror that reflects it... |

I know the feeling of lives changing, we change and grow, sometimes others don't go in the same direction we are going. So many times I have reflected over a past love from high school, and I have seen his photo in the hometown paper when I visit there...We were young and free, but he was my first love. I liked the poem! It spoke to my soul! |

Exquisite descriptives lostboy. I also enjoyed the fire and ice line. Yes we all do change and rearrange. We always will. The key is to find the one who will go through it with us through good or bad, happy or sad. That's love my friend. (at least my idea of love) |
