He had the world in his pocket.
But he was always afraid to look.
The first up to bat
The last on the hook.
He was a cool contradiction.
A child of a man.
Selfish yet caring
Honest but lost
He was beautiful and strong.
But self-conscious and oh so wrong.
Afraid to love
But at a loss concerning the cost
He had the world in his pocket
If only he would try
Maybe just maybe
Perhaps- he could learn how to fly.
