A man who tried
to write and lie
Of words that flicked
and always cried.
A thing that never came his path
He returns to doing math.
A lifeless life
he thinks he has.
But what he was
its not the past.
He grows and grows,
but doesn't know
that its a clue,
to his future life.
His life is a success
its not a mess.
His childhood ways,
never fade away.
His friends might fade,
but his dreams don't cave.
They stay and strive
to save his life.
