Go, I'll follow

Young love so tender and new
boy kisses girl, she enjoys it too
inseparable pals full of adventure
youth gone too fast forcing their next venture.
Last night to show what needs to show
She whispers to him "Go, I'll follow."
 
Young man heading off to school
the next adventure starting to pull
his mind and heart into the dark.
Young man meets Young girl in the park
old love becomes revived
surprised it survived
Young man kisses Young girl again
taking their old adventure for a spin
until four years later, once more he has to go
She whispers once more "Go, I'll follow."
 
Young Man grows into his prime
making a name for himself in no time
education paying off but him hollow
until a chance meeting caught his eye
causing his heart to fly
Young Woman has reached her peak
making his knees weak
they rekindle their lost fire
until the day they stand before the choir
becoming united in name and love
adventuring to the heavens above
until one day Old Woman becomes sick
and her life begins to fade quick
and at last when it comes time for Her to go
with a sad smile He whispers "Go, I'll follow."
