My hands shiver the cold gets into me
And I see him
Standing tall and calm
Composed by his own pride
A fondless desire to offer it up
To be the center of attention for something great
But it's not that popularHis eyes tell the tales of his life
These words act like a barrier
He wanders for escape
Like a caged bird he's trapped by tradition
Longing to return to his former beingHer eyes trickle past him
To his senior
Who questions her about his being
He isn't amused or attentive
She smiled he leaves nonchalantlyExcitement bubbles within her
For there is a boy
A beautiful boy
With brown hair
And dark eyes
And maybe he could be itHe walks down the aisle with offering in hand
She walks down with candles
God watches them
In that moment they were to be
Happier
