Beautiful Boy

Beautiful Boy

A Poem by Jesse F Hayes
"

Lyrics

"

Your brown eyes were always the first to cry

You were what held us together through it all

Oh I can't say where the blame should fall

It wasn't you god how you'd try

 

You were my safety you were my hope

God knows you had enough for us all

And I still dream of sitting by your door in the hall

When I think with you I feel at home

 

I'll break you down

Til there's no one around

These nine long years have worn us down

Didn't I say they would?

 

Oh beautiful boy where did you go

You were always the first to believe

Even when we tried to keep it underneath

This is going to break me more than you know

 

I'll break you down

Til there's no one around

These nine long years have worn us down

Didn't I say

 

I miss your arms your eyes your laugh

They all went away

And now I hate her

For making your smile fade

 

Oh beautiful boy

Where did you go

 

I'll break you down

Til there's no one around

These nine long years have worn us down

Didn't I say they would?

That's the second bridge I've had for that song. I still despise it. Suggestions welcome!

Ohhh don't despise it! I want to hear it. Do you have the music for it?

All of my sentences end with "it"!

I read this. I like it. I don't know what else to say other than they really need to add a "lyrics" section when we add writing. You do know that you can add music and your voice to this, right? Think of the possibilities!!! =)

Seriously, it's truly beautiful. I like the repetition.
