What Will Be

WHAT WILL BE

A Poem by Debbie_Philly 

" A small poem for some dear to me. "
 
WHAT WILL BE
 
Little boy, Little boy
Where are you now?
Are you dreaming of
boats are you floating
on clouds?
 
Where’s the innocents
once draped on your face?
As I look at you now I
search for a trace.
 
Of the boy I once knew
who is now a man.
Drifting through his life
without any plans.
 
Stretch out your hands
set your world on fire.
Know that your happiness
is  my one true desire.
 
This cruel world is daunting
more then we can bare.
Sometimes it seems as though
life is truly unfair.
 
Let go of the past kick your
heels up and sing.
know that in this life’s story
there is one true thing.
 
My love for you is real for
both boy and man.
Look at this girl/women
grab hold of her hand.
 
Keep safe your sweets innocents
don’t let go of your dreams.
Hold your head up when it all
falls apart at the seams.
 
Never let go of my hand
believe when I say.
I love you so much more
now then I did yesterday.

A tale of unrequited love, it seems...perhaps the purest kind x
