Teach Him Love
Watching him sleep
As I silently weep
About old times and fun
Looking 360 degrees at all that he's done
A wonderful life disregarded, tears shattered
His thoughts that nothing he's accomplished has mattered
All the anger and confuse that he's bottled inside
So he took the wrong path and tried desperatly to run and hide
Justice System nailed him and put him on parole
How could people do this to such a beautiful soul?
All the times that we shared
From the hints that he tried to show me he cared
Now he's almost lost and almost hopeless
Like everyday he's trying to explain how he copes less
By himself in a big, big, world alone
Laying his head down anywhere he can call home
I can't imagine the fears that he faces everyday
But still I try to help him in any way
Though right now all I have to offer him is my love
And the gifts of the messages from way up above
However, he doesn't know I feel the same way
How I fear just to live day by day
I know he wants to speak but doesn't know where to start
Because for him and I have too long been apart
So much to say and so little time
So on paper I put it and try hard for it to rhyme
I can tell in his eyes hope is not lost
But I do see his world completely covered in cold, thick, frost
My job here is to warm his heart
And to tell him:
"That no matter what, we'll never be apart."
