Puppy Love Unknowing Pups

Together we rode the streets holding hands on our bikes
Young love with no future intentions
My name probably has never poured from your lips in 30 years
Two young kids loving life and playing pretend
Pretending to be the couple we are now with our spouses
Even though those days we were clueless
Clueless to that it all meant
To us it meant getting to hold hands as we made that corner turn onto Gravel street
It meant laughing till our sides hurt
It meant inviting you to my Mcdonalds birthday party
It meant saying goodby and not realizing it was forever
It meant childhood memories would always contain good ones
It meant that knowing I made her smile once means I was there for a reason
It means that not knowing that reason doesn't matter anymore
It means that Gravel Street will always make me smile with every inch of my heart

What Friends

Alone again with these empty people
People no one knows but they know me
Friends no one ever accepted
People who come around when you least expect
My heart opens up to hear their words
Engulfed with their influence
Enraged by their freedom
A freedom no one wants
But one that everyone accepts
And until the day I accept them
I shall remain alone.....all alone

Tomorrow's Promise

Today I smiled and you stared at my soul
Today I asked you to let go
Let go of your worry and fear
Only because I want you near
Next to me and embraced within my fire
Something that promises to take you higher
Higher than tomorrow's expectations and goals
Because it's time for us to become foes
One soul, one beat, one thought of a new heart
Together it's time to agree to never be apart

Another Soul

Into the darkness I push forward blinded and free
I take what I get because it's deep within me
Today I have embraced my torture and pain
Only to never endure it again
Playing these wicked games I am the snakes head
Afraid if all the consequences and being dead
Still I chance the pain and sorrow
Tomorrow I think I will borrow
Borrow the dedication it takes to be a better man
Better than what you say I can
But tomorrow will fill my soul
And if I'm lucky, will make me whole
