back in the day.

The kids on the gate

They watch and wait

As life passes by

Cars passing

On the edge of a busy life

Living

On the edge of a busy city

Searching

On the edge of a busy life

Looking

The kids on the gate

Bide their time

They’ve no reason or rhyme

For what they want

They give no thoughts

To plans

Too busy thriving

On the edge of a shared dream

They wandered to the edge

And now they dream of

The center

The kids on the gate

They sit and they

Wait

And they

Wait

And they

Wait
