Love Songs and Wooden Boxes
Beautiful tunes stuck in the mind.
Spent half your life in searching
looking for that perfect face.
Wouldn’t it have been simpler,
To smile a little and reduce the pace?
Smile for the boy in the corner
Drowned in the sorrow of his chocolate.
Grown into a man without reason
More wrong choices and twist of fate.
Fight against pain and reality
Throw them beyond seas stretched so far
Beauty was in my childhood
Now she’s in steel strings and shooting stars
Wake up brothers and sisters
Listen to the fresh air sing
Open your eyes and understand
This world’s too beautiful to live in.
What stayed with you?
A line that lingered, a feeling, a disagreement. Great comments are as valuable as the original piece.
