He read poetry in his room
Hoping to find love escaping doom
Peace and closure feelings ran deep
Made it easy for him to sleep
Laying in his bed clearing his head
All the loss had more meaning
All the victories short lived feelings
An internal struggle that was real
Another short deal now healing
Giving it all is never enough
Getting older making it tough
An adult heart conflicts with childhood
Not the same from the neighborhood
Come so far people can't forget the past
