Bright fights at night

Late last night...
In the blinding city lights
A boy... young at heart
Trying to sleep beside his bullock cart
Lost in the noise
Lacking confidence and poise

A simple life upset
Starting anew without regret
Complicated encounters
Dangerous run ins with "bouncers"

Driving home after a fight
A little to fast...
Flashbacks of the Happy past
To lost to care about someone else's plight

Standing in the boys shoes
Listening to the kitten mew
An altar ego..
Childhood spent with lego...

Total opposites...
Born as a composite
Similarities unseen
Differences that could never have been

The grass they say...
Especially if you've lost your weigh
Is always greener...
And the other person leaner
