The unknown love…
He stands there on a broken road
Lonely and afraid.
On either side, light shines
But on him
Only darkness appears.
His parents left him to fend for himself
All those dark years ago.
Now, almost a grown man
He walks this wounded path alone…
Or so he thinks.
On the gray path
Between the light and the dark
Stands a broken girl
The black sheep of her family.
She watches him from the dreary side
Wishing she could help his lonesome life.
One day when the young man needs food
He finds a roll of money in his broken street.
The girl stands behind a tree
Watching the boy cautiously pick up the money
Then quickly running to the store.
She giggles to herself
The first time she’s laughed in a long time.
The next day,
The boy sits on the sidewalk
Thinking how lucky he was
To find money for food and water.
The girl walks up to him and smiles
Making the boy instantly smile back at her.
They talk…
About their lives
About their losses
They sit and talk till the sun is down past the horizon
The boy never stops smiling
Finally he’s not alone
At last he has found somebody for him.
The girl never speaks of the money
The roll of money she’d left for him…
It’d be her little secret.
Ten years later,
The woman says ‘I Do’
While smiling up at the man next to him.
Successful and happy, the wed.
And the man always wondered
About the person who’d left him money
To start him on his way
To his now magnificent life.
