The Beginning
I've always tried to understand
the meaning of my mind.
Why do I love the color green
and why am I too kind?
Why does music keep me alive
songs play in my head.
Staring at my childhood picture
my image strong as lead.
Barely 5 with green shirt on
staring off in space.
Sweater threaded music notes
rock and roll, please no lace.
Mouth half way open
belting out a tune.
Eyes piercing through you
Sun so hot in June.
Different from the others
the leader of the pack
The photograph that keeps me
Forging forward never back.
