Our Minds and Souls

I used to look out the window when I was a kid. Dreaming of things I’d love to be. Dreaming of places I’d love to see. Life brings with it a chain and ball. Life delivers promises and some must fail. But, I promised that little boy behind my eyes. That I would do one thing with no regret and no lies. I’d love a woman and give her everything this soul could give. A lonely, lost little boy and I would be to her a mighty king. Life plays games with our minds and souls but this promise I made to that kid, well it still holds.
