The Ties that Bind

The Ties that Bind

The ties that bind we cannot see,

They reach out to eternity.

Invisible to every eye

They live within a lover’s sigh

No matter where your life may lead

You’ll hear the calling of the seed

That planted you so long ago,

And loved you when you didn’t know

The one who gazed at you with pride,

Who always stayed close by your side?

But no one knows where life may lead

For those who never took no heed,

To older or much wiser minds

Who never seemed to be unkind?

Sometime you may be all alone

Without a friend to call your own,

Its then you always seem to feel

That longing love that left its seal

Upon a heart not made of stone

That calls the prodigal back home.

Christos
