Center Of Attention ~ Jackson Waters
“You want your independence
But you wont let me let you go
You wanna test the waters
And leave it on the empty shores”
Sometimes I miss the sound of thunder..
I stayed wide awake in the eerie hours of the morning..
I remembered a story I heard from my grandma
Vaguely..
About this little boy who discovered a hole in a dam and how he stayed up all night trying to stop the water…
They found him dead the next morning…
Later they discovered he had saved the town…
He was a hero…
I don’t remember my reaction…
It was a sad story.,
Reminds me of the little match girl in many ways….
I miss the sound of thunder….
I miss a home that seems just too far today….
Being brave does not mean you are without fear…..
It means you did not let fear stop you….
