Detours and Forevermore

In these landscapes  painted with close calls and teenage boys teetering on Lover's Falls from the crevices of loneliness  so far down, sun doesn't shine to times when this little light of mine, shined like a late night diner sign Birthdays at Denny's  to me wearing your tapestry  slightly parted curtains  revealed so much hurting  the pain was choking Looked beyond despair  learned to breathe without air stepped into a new existence  began changing the ordering  of persistence. Came to understand  the journey of a man learned to pick myself up after a tumble and how to walk from underneath that youthful safety bubble Seen a lot of things during  this time of mine, but none more amazing than when your love redirected me One hundred and twenty-five miles out, from Forevermore let's keep pushing through till forevermore is in our rearview
