Love's Ways

Inspired by the song 'Crazy' by Aerosmith

Young and wanting more than what she has
Living in a place that brings her down
She feels he wants to try to hold her back
Instead, he loves her, no strings attached

He’s to her like chains that lock her up
She brings him love that he has never had
He doesn’t see the dream she’s always seen
She wants to be a star in her own right

To feel the light of fame upon her heart
He sees the dark ways that path can lead
She only sees a golden life ahead
They pull and push against what’s right and wrong

To each of them, just passion keeps them strong
A love, deep, that neither understands
It holds her there each night within his arms
And keeps him stable when she tries to run

How can a love like this keep struggling on?
Will it hold whatever path they choose?
The universe looks on, following each twist
Until the final outcome is revealed.
