Picture perfect memories

Scattered all around the floor

Reaching for the phone cause

I can't fight it anymore

And I wonder if I ever cross your mind

For me it happens all the time

It's a quarter after one

I'm all alone and I need you now


Cain's POV

"You ready son?" A young boy of just eight years old, nods. He has a mop of curls and a guitar in hand, though it looks quite large in his arms. His father holds a similar guitar, though it looks regular-sized on his lap.

"Let's start from the beginning now. One, two, one, two, three." His father starts off and begins strumming the guitar, and the son follows steadily.

Father:

Close your eyes

Have no fear

The monster's gone

He's on the run and your daddy's here


Together:

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

Beautiful boy

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

Beautiful boy


Son:

Before you go to sleep

Say a little prayer

Every day in every way

It's getting better and better


Together:

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

Beautiful boy

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful

Beautiful boy

They stopped as the son strung the wrong chord, embarrassed he blushed. Then there was applause, looking to his side his mother sat cross-legged with his sister on her lap. They clapped at the performance and it brought a small smile to the son's face.
