whispering -

to yourself - sweet child;

summoning soft strength

to love another...

some day...

it's all experience; self power

before you drift apart

from all that secret self;

before that self - ends -

beside another.



for you will find the one,

you can find the one

and open up...


i am now this father

and can see the child in everyone,

where we were kids,

how we were fractured

needing one other

young and old

across the street

be the worker,

be the laughter,

be the muse

Just seek your sun;

It will eclipse you...


...and you will not mind - no, not then -

to give up that self that we once loved.

you should not mind.



for you will find the one,

you can find the one...

and settle down.

.

watch, and feel the wheel go round
