what’s yet to come

She is still a child

No idea what is yet to come

Happy, innocent and wild

She only knows freedom

She looks up at him with loving eyes

He looks at her the same

Time is infinite, moments everlasting

Until the next day came

You can’t see it in her eyes

In his either

But this moment was their last

As she walks out the door, smiling ear to ear

He shouts after her, “come back now, you hear!”

She says she will, no idea what is yet to come

The very next day he’s gone

The rest of her life has begun

Without him to guide her

Show her the way

All that’s left is the picture

Frozen in time, where they’ll forever lay
