perfectly irresistible, perfectly flawed
the fire in his eyes lets you know
he means everything he says
his story... heart wrenching
you look into his eyes
and see a broken little boy
that little boy only comes out
when you're around
he is so close to you
from this close you can see
his long eyelashes dance
over his chocolate brown eyes
there is a connection...
bits and pieces of your souls escape
as you share your stories
but... then you come to a crude awakening.
will he even remember this tomorrow?
will he remember your connection?
is he even really here right now?
the alcohol stench and cigarette smoke surround him
and you realize... that broken little boy
is lost in a cloud of addiction,
and you might never be able to reach him.
he might already be gone...
