There Was A Place I Use To Live
There was a place I use to live
Down a country dirt road
The sun always shone for the rain never fell
So the sky was forever blue, and green grass grew
There was a place I use to live
With a family small of four
My brother young and wild
A mother simple though beautiful
Strong through his silence was my father
And then there was me
A curious child, at one time free
There was a place I use to live
Now the years have passed
Seasons changed oh to fast
The country road is now a muddy old path
Beneath the withered grass the sun has sunk
And the sky forever blue became a dull gray
There was a place I use to live
It lives now in my memory
A/N: This is just a little thing I wrote after watching the Road To Perdition, and while listening to the soundtrack. I've never written poetry (as is probably quite obvious since this is terrible) but I still appreciate reviews.
