Dirt Roads

Subseven


country dirt roads - 
this walk is not the same without you - 
right here - by me - the twig I trip over is you - 
over - this bridge - the memories of the past times
look up - past the trees - and to the left - 
the broken house that you lived in - 

good times was all we had - 
concrete slabs spray painted - 
leaves me pictures of you - 
I patiently wait… (the place we played) for you - 
I silently pray…(you'll find a way) for you - 

the top - of this tree - where we could see for miles - 
stories - of the times - the testimonies of our lives - 
smell the air - take a breath - fall asleep and listen in - 
we learn a lot from experiences, but it's no good if we don't change. - 
good times was all we had - concrete slabs spray painted - 
leaves me pictures of you - I patiently wait… for you - 
I silently pray… for you

close your eyes (It's time to move on to the new.) - 
hold on tight (forget the past, forget old 'you'.) - 
we'll be alright (look to the new pasture.) - 
close your eyes (the past won't meet your future.) - 

the field - the creek - where the fort we built I think still lay - 
crooked branches with our names - still engraved - 
they'll stay the same.
