Per Swayed Son

Parents tell their boys, so they grow to men,

Everything they need to know to

Ripen their possibilities, with proper perception of love

Starting with the basics, found virtuous and sound

Worthy of respect in honorable intentions

A woman will recognize the

Young gentlemen that evolve

Expressing their tender care as they

Dare to pursue a true love

So someday they’ll hold

One heart in their hands

Naturally molded together as one, rooted in bloom

The Lost Boys

Time and time again it seems

Hopeless

Ever breaking hearts spilling

Lust prevails on the streets

Obstructing a clean view

Such simple acts

Taking so much hope away

Bypassing the heart of the matter

Only pieces remain after careless encounters

Young boys, unguided, get lost

Soon to find themselves crashed and burned, detached

Show Me Love

I can see it in your eyes
that distant pain
a shadow behind the bright glow
You're scared, but you're strong

I'm going to teach you how to love
I'll show you how much I care
With my arms around you, I'll hold you close
surrounding your heart

Your golden green eyes and tender smile,
so beautiful and you don't even know
the warmth of your heart
how it flows into those around you

I'm going to show you how to love
by loving you the way you deserve
I'll wrap myself around you
protecting the treasure of you

You've never fallen before
but I'll reach out to you
take you by the hand
to float heart by heart
finding our path together
