Brown Eyed Boy

Brown eyed boy sailing on a ship of dreams in an ocean of blue sky sewn with cotton seams. Sails are filled with wind blowing from the east. A symphony of music created by the sea. Brown eyed boy listens to the notes as people cage his joy, they say dreams can't last. The music loudens, sails whip. He knows and believes. His heart won't let him quit, his dreams survive on the sea. Brown eyed boy help me survive. I am caged joy, imagination deprived. I used to be like you dreams soaring high, til I invited people in to control my life. Help me, help me I've forgotten how to dream, how to hope and believe in...anything.
