The Light over yonder, across the bay
He always saw it at night glowing so bright
Everyone around town knew of him
Heard the rumors and always wondered
Yet no one actually knew of him
What they knew was he knew others
And that he is someone you want to be connected to
Not personally, just use him if you can
It felt like every weekend there was a party
At least that’s what many of the rumors said
People believed most of them that he wanted something
Was it a good lay? Some sort of connection? What?
As the town whispered, the parties went on
The loud chatter, the music louder happening
Yet one thing always was calm amidst it all
The light across the bay he looked at every night
He heard all the gossip the people spoke of him
Smirking while shaking his head at each one
Every rumor has some grain of truth however
He was indeed looking for something
In fact it was ever since he was a young boy
When the world around him was dark
He saw a glimmer of light to guide him through
And so he began searching for that who illuminated
It wasn’t Violet who was stunning yet cold
Nor was it Rose who was like any other name
It was not Lily, sweet but would not grow up
Just like Holly, except she was more rough
Jasmine was harsh and would not compromise
While Ivy and Iris simply wanted a status rise
Every night he will stand at the end of the dock
Looking out at the light and the stars waiting
He was well aware of what made him so appealing, so Great
The wealth and house he stumbled upon not so long ago
The carefree attitude for life while knowing what matters
The many travels and adventures he always seems to go on
All the knowledge he knows and the hobbies he enjoys
Dancing, music, horseback riding, boating, cars
You name it and he more than likely does it or will do
And yet there’s something he hasn’t done yet always wanted
He never knew what it is like to simply fall in love
But all these years later he has never given up
While others may have dropped it and settled in the end
Nay persistent he was with a willpower like no other
In his heart he felt he has met her before, maybe in his dreams
Regardless, no matter how lonely he may feel at times here
Even in a crowded home in the midst of another party
He will keep searching using that light across the bay
Knowing that somewhere out there, he has yet to meet Daisy. . .
