(Extended from “Vows”)
I vowed to give you every thing you ever wanted.
Then all you ever wanted was to leave..
But Real love keeps its word, so I had to set you free…
With no training wheels or hands held,
No supervision,
No dinner bell ringing,
telling you to come home and wash off the day’s dirt and mischief.
No, you’re just cruising now,
Distant and roaming and free, farther into the unknown of your own horizon.
And All I can bring myself to do is
Grin and reminisce on the days when you were mine,
Ages ago when we first placed one planted foot after another onto love crushed petals, ready to take our first enchanted ride
under the Spanish mossed oak trees of Thunderbolt lane.
