Old willow trees'
Broken feet
Beyond the kind of time
Where children play and
Sing songs of autumn noonAt least until that day
You came
And destroyed that
Child's tuneAnd now that child
Is a man who doesn't
Know what to doHe's all alone
Still a child inside
-Betrayed so many times he's only left
To run and hideRealizing the world isn't
What he wanted
He paints his soul away
Hoping to find some wayTo patch up the scars
And wipe away the tears
For he feels like he's been here
A million yearsTime goes by
The young man grows old
Yet, still his heart never grew coldThe old man then decides
It went all away too fast
He realized he'd broken the mold
His legacy will last but
He dies with all his stories- untold
