Not a formed person(wish to be)
Kids teach us more
Than any PHD
Not a formed person but I
Wish to be
They teach sheer joy and wonder
And how it should be
Being themselves
Not being afraid
Not a formed person but
Wish to be
Until the ugly world
Comes to their door to take their innocence away
It doesn’t knock it
Kicks it in…and the
Innocence can’t return
Innocence and believing
Is the wonder of life
And it lives when we are
A little naive
And we still believe
In our better being
Our own better being
A truly human
Being
And I’m not a formed person
Ghosts are chasing me
Chasing me down the well
Know the right path..
But…I..go…left…of…me
Go left of me
Might need an intervention…
To save me
Love will lift us and
Come to save the…day
I hope you know I love you
Can’t find the words
When you see me
You’ll know that it’s true
You’ll know…you’ll know…you’ll know
It’s true
It’s true I’m not a formed person
No I’m not a formed person
But I wish to be
Not a formed human
Someday I will be…I will be…I will be
Someday you’ll find me
And I’m truly formed… a fully formed person
It’s who I strive to be
But it escapes me
Won’t let it get away from
Me
Than any PHD
Not a formed person but I
Wish to be
They teach sheer joy and wonder
And how it should be
Being themselves
Not being afraid
Not a formed person but
Wish to be
Until the ugly world
Comes to their door to take their innocence away
