Elucidating Questions

Trapped between thought and action

You tell lies like they drip from the skies

They slip past your lips as if that is what they miss

The truth is a mystery

What the true motivation is lost in dropped falsities.

Yet your eyes show a scared boy

And that boy I want to fold into my arms

Beautiful child

I love you

Beautiful boy

Don’t be afraid

Wonderful child

I will stay until you don’t need me anymore

That’s what I do
