"There’s a green-eyed boy who lives

A thousand miles away.

I’ve never met him, only dreamt

Of words he’ll never say. 

Somehow through the photographs

His smile has blessed my heart,

Bringing laughter to my life 

No matter how far apart. 

Perhaps I’ll never hold him

And watch still nights turn into days. 

But the smile in the photo -

One of pure, invincible joy -

Makes me believe that it’s alright

If I never meet my green-eyed boy.

As long as he is smiling

In that lovely boyish way, 

Then I, too, can smile,

And I know I’ll be okay."

** P.S. I've written a Bonus Ending!! If enough readers comment that they’re interested in reading it (3 additional paragraphs I didn't include but add a cool twist), I might publish it... ;)

Thanks for coming along the journey!
