When i was a young boy who paraded in the summer i saw katy who was even younger she had blues eyes and silky skin, but she looked like she hurt within. I walked up to her slow as a slug and i wanted to hug, i knew she was sweet i knew it was there i knew it as i looked at her long silky blonde hair, she smiled and me when she saw me coming and then i stared running towards her and said hi my names Wes, we grew up together playing songs undoing wrongs and then it occured to me i was in love with a sweet girl sweet as a dove, i approached on homecoming day and just as i said hey, Cid walked up and stole her away for i hadn't conquered that day, i locked my self in my room and took off my sweater, but nothing could make me feel better, i punched my pillows and screamed and got angry and mad, i even missed homecoming that evening of that day which was awful there was nothing to say, and katie was soft with her parents divorced i thought of course, i saw if Cid really cared if there was love to be shared i talked with her at school told petty lies that made it seem like there were no nice guys, she broke up with Cid and i wasn't smart it was i not Cid who had broken her heart, i told what i had done and by that days setting sun she was gone and lost forever and i looked down at my alpaca sweater, my throat ached my blood burned because it was for her that i yearned, years later i tracked her down she was living in a small town it took me a week to get her to talk and then a week to go with me for a walk, she had moved and i had left a wound that just got worse, i asked her to marry me right there as i knelt on the floor and it seemed like the word no was no more, we're married now and very happy, we're always very snappy we have a cottage and lots of friends so happy is how this story ends.
