I Follow
As she walked the terminal
Her heart ached with pull
....back, back to safety
But, she walked on
He stepped blindly, up
As his captor led him
...where? Wherever, it mattered not
He followed
They filled the stadium with glee
Excited to return to living
...reality....yes, reality is for the living
They ran
Leaving all behind for opportunity
It was the right thing to do
...if only her heart would shut up
A new job in a new land...success
He cared not where he was led
The love for his captain held him
If life is given...today
It is yielded in every way
Everyone has their vice, their thrill
This was their heaven...though it's puffed with leaven
This is everything
Being with lke-minded people
