Change

A long time ago..
There was a little boy,
Who opened his eyes and saw around him
This world of man.

His eyes were wide with wonder,
And when he saw his mothers smile,
He felt like he was in heaven all over again.
And the two faced world watched in silence.

When it started the little boy never knew,
Time clutched harder than his mothers tightest embrace,
and whisked him away.
The world outside waited biding its time.

Then when the little boy opened his eyes,
The world he saw he didn't recognize.
magically it seemed all around him had changed,
Before he could understand or question,it changed forever.

Around him he found more of his kind,
more lost and confused souls grapplin,
Grappling trying to find what happened to the world they called home.
He found comfort and solace with some,for his mothers eyes and the glimpse of heaven seemed to be fading away.

Nowhere it seemed was anything the same,
Inside of him his body grew and changed and suddenly his thoughts,
Were filled with the scent of first love.
He wondered if this was his destiny and he tried to find.

Find again Heaven in the eyes of this girl,
whose smeel seemed to intoxicate him.
So convinced was he that he could never see,
How this world had a silent playful smile on its lips.

And again the little boy came back to life,
When he saw into those eyes he coveted.
he found nothing but a black abyss,
Seeing through the pain he finally began to understand.

A little late the little boy began to change,
He began to see the world for what it was.
He seemed to find a balance and regained his smile.
The world smiled approvingly at the boy who wasn't little anymore.

The boy seemed to forget the past,
He smiled and he laughed
and so did all around him,
But the clutch of time never let go.

And one day when the boy awoke,
The fear came back,all around him
He saw what he could not recognize
what he could not comprehend.

He seemed to be a stranger in a strange land.
No love and no guidance could he find.
At last he looked beside him
and there he found the little boy of the past.

As he looked amazed at himself,
The world gave him a smile of understanding.
And then the boy understood and found that it wasn't so strange anymore.
The little boy had seen it all before.

And then both the boys walked on to be one with the world at large.
