five minutes past noon...

five minutes past noon

the air has run still

life is frozen

people glancing left and right

they cross the road of truth

I remember the boy

the boy called William

his hair so messy

scuffs on his knees

mud on his hands

scrapes on his feet

I remember the girl

the girl he liked

she payed no mind

he was just there to her

he never gave up

childhood innocence ran free

it passed quickly before blinking

they got older

his knees healed

his hair settled

his hands were washed

his feet scarred

his heart kept beating

she kept ignoring

ignoring what he said

putting him to blame

blaming him of the silence

he stopped trying

his heart was breaking

he couldn't stop the pain

she didn't have a care in the world

only he was to blame

the rain still fell

the winds still blew

life went on without him in it

truth in a Disney movie

it's the circle of life
