My Fountain of Joy

My eyes are like a fountain And I move as if cold It's unbearable The feeling inside my frozen heart As frozen as the iceberg that sunk the Titanic As frightened as the men in the trenches As sick as the dying children of now For you now, walking does not work without help With the balance of two strong men, you walk to were I last see you Before your struggle to stand and to move Your smile once sun but now like clouds Not to worry others you say Not to worry your mother you say by come to learn and risk your health And worry us all I'm not there to see it happen but only to come when the strong man streams I immediately thought you fell And though I did not see I knew before and I run Looking around to find something to refill you fountain eyes and steal the closest thing to help Your eye are like a fountain And you move as if cold It's unbearable Your eyes flutter as if a beautiful butterfly But I almost loose sight when the men came to take you away I have not since seen you but I know your ok You told me so But my heart still feels as frozen as the iceberg that sunk the titanic As frightened as the men in the trenches As sick as the dying children of now Your beautiful sunshine smile and butterfly eyes My fountain of joy
