(To my friend Tom)
Your honesty, sincerity
Always creating a light of truth
In spaces full of darkened lies
Your sweetness and commitment
Stepping in wholeheartedly
I see beauty in your eyes
Innocence was killed and crushed
By a love that made your vision blurry
That made your definition of verity
Blend with that of fakened attitude
Disappointment shattered dreams
Shattered faith, and hope, and trust
She scarred your soul, that nasty girl
She stole your latitude
But you're still cute, and fun, and smart
Let your dreams reach further than your broken heart
