Twice a child once a man

That Boy.

stole my heart

like a lil kid playin keep away

took it.

refusing to give it back

when the game was over .

he kicked it

down the street.

kicked it further. and further

as soon as i could

i knew i would retrieve it

but alas

dammit

another lil boy wanted to play

seemed like fun

like a game

like yarn to a cat.

kicked it further down the street

pass Hurt Blvd

Teary Lane

and the BLVD of broken dreams

everytime i get closer

to gettin that half of my heart back

someone else decides to play the game

"kick DA Heart"

past streets. miles from the start

there goes my heart.

but i no one day

a grown man

not a child

will stray away from childish games

and pick my heart off the ground

blow of the dust

clean it

and not grab tape to fix it

but he will use

the power of true love

a glue that cant be broken

so quickly like tape

to mend this broken heart

until he also becomes a child

hence. one a man twice a child

and my heart is kicked on

forever

until once more

a man

gives me his hand

and leads me

and my heart

on home.
