Within The Pages Of A Book


Recommended Posts

I see him still-- the little boy

Sad, with unshed tears.

What if he'd known

What the future would hold:

Shattered hopes, and never gold?

Did he think that he could win the heart

Of the dark-haired angel with blue eyes?

I see him still-- his eyes of gray

Haunted, knowing beyond his years

That to dare to hope

Is to hear the laughter

And in time, it has carried on:

As it was,

As it is,

As it will be.

Looking back-- on every stage

From ringlets long to silver time:

Surely he'd known

Of the untraveled road,

Never to embrace the kindred soul--

Did he think anyone could see beyond

The veiled eyes hiding tears?
