I stood on the portico
Repeatedly called your name, 
You had turned away
Before I was calling you,
You turned fast, walked away.

I shall...

I walked on the garden path, 
young heart pulsating 
with the cadence of love, 
fostered dream of permanence

"Are you happy?" the old man ventured
All he owned fit on his three-wheeled cart
He flew a new "Don't Tread on Me" flag
A pack of cigarettes,...
