I watch you tread the streets
Afraid that you might be gone
I scatter to see the faces filled with
Glee and I know it'll be fun.
Your laughter and smile puts joy
In my heart I know forever
Is the time that you'll remain
And nothing can ever erase it.
I've been longing to caress you,
Attend to you and care
You speak of such things that I know
May lead to...nothing? I don't know.
But...a simple greeting is all I get
You must remember things I cherish
This illusion of mine is so surreal
For you are somebody else's little boy.
