she thought

:

I'm gonna live within a dream that is my own

//                                                  

                                              ( the boy --
smiled with a smile that said

                BE BRAVE )

••                                                      

All the girls she'd ever known

Acted like it all was

Nothin but a high school ***** show

••

••

The boy was watching

But she knew that he would never intervene

Unto her sacred solitude

••

Her days were soft amidst

                               Encircling sorrow

but she was there for the

Greater tomorrow

                                                      •

the­ boy !

He always seemed to be there
                                        When she needed strength

::

And so she

KEPT THE FAITH

( ..... And the drifting years ..... )

She saw him ! -- oh how their stories

Did unwind !
                                    
she recognized him easily

By the joy within his smile

:::

They held each other's gaze so openly

The One Light shinning eternally

Within their eyes
