It came deep today
That mind that plays
Tricks on you
In the navy blue
Of sleeping
Thoughts seeping
Of how it used to be
When he was kind to me
Old and young
He was fun
My son's friend
I'll love him 'till the end
Of all my life
While he has his girlfriend wife
And I have my boyfriend man
To ask if anyone can understand
How kindness from the best of them
Brings about a dream of whim
That catches me in dreams flight
Where his young face is alright
It's here with me in waves
My heart forever saves
The hope he gave to one so old
Some friends are silver, he was gold
In reality, in dreams
Gone to a city my mind screams
Today he's back where he came from
My young Bob Marley playing bum
Who moved away to get it together
Is here to stay in my heart forever
To grow up and reach out the thing to do
While today your spirit was here and true
To form
Cancer man grew to be warm
All gone from where mama's live
I write this heartunes to give
A taste of what sleep does
Or how kindness brings loves
In my mind not a crime
For all time to love in rhyme.
