Hey Little Boy Hey little one Is that a tear on your cheek Why give up and run For this is not what you truly seek All alone without a light No one to share a care Don't worry little one about sight Two eyes you need not to wear The heart filled with emotions A plague to your fragile will Such strength surpasses even the greatest oceans Yet impassioned dreams it comes to kill You will find her someday Keep your head high my friend Little boy you must never lose your way The cure will come with a pleasing blend Never yearn for the way out Little one you will not fail Never the lovely girl you must doubt No point in chasing your own tail The envy that drives you into madness So crippling your body without regret Must be cast aside or welcomed with sadness And the sadness making you death's pet Now little boy keep the smile and lose the sigh Your promise to her is tonight It is not your turn to lose and die You must open your eyes and forever regain your sight |

Quite eloquent and insightful guidance. I enjoyed this! Could a greater miracle take place than for us to look through each other's eyes for an instant?......Henry David Thoreau |
