Little Boys
I search and search every day
for that little boy who will play
the strings of my heart like
his favorite guitar
He says his dreams will take him far
as his lips press lightly
on the nape of my neck
He would trek 1,000 miles
just to make me smile
because he says I'm the only
thing that matters much
anymore
His past is pained but
that doesn't mean it has to mame
his future
FAME is not what he wants
His maturity never ceases to amaze me
A beautiful contrast to his constant
childlike ability to add light to any room
or give a smile to any star
It's sad that he won't go as far as he'd planned
I must condem him to memory
his freckles and the feeling of
running my fingers through his hair
It isn't fair that he was never there
in the first place
