The next step

Lost soul

You held his hand. You helped him find his laughter . You walked with him through his childhood memories.

You listen to his dreams and comforted him through his fears.

You gave him new memories, a new stories. And in doing so he found his happiness.

A happiness that was so grand, it attracted another . So for his happiness, you let him go and watched from a far.

As he walked onwards into the distance with her by his side. You cried, we all do. But he’s too far away to see or hear you.

Through your tears you see another, his cry was louder than yours. And so, you dry your tears and smile at him.

With this, you held his hand and you helped him find his laughter. And so it begins again.
