The Beam Kid

The beam kid was a product of the sun.

Born to run, with a personality that outshone.

Even through adversity, his beams were never regular,

He was the beam kid, born in a nebula.

He had a warm personality,

And his tenacity, shone savagely.

He was different than other kids, he was a rarity.

Too bright for the other kids,

So the jealousy eventually created enemies.

There came periods of hardship, where the beam kid didn’t want to be so bright,

Because of all the kids in the shadows, who tried to dim his light.

They made bargains with the moon, to try to eclipse his sight.

Because he was different….

So he grew up with this pain,

And though he was persistent, struggling to have his sunny disposition remain,

His heart began to harden,

So his beams began to darken.

He thought that when he started University, they’d like him,

If he kept his spark dim.

But everyone knew about the sun beam kid,

So their words remained like gunshots,

Aimed directly at his sun spots.

And the little bit of nutrients he had left, that his sun beams would provide,

Died away in a deep darkness where he began to reside.

He began to come to grips with what they said,

So his heart became eclipsed by what they said.

And then in walks Little miss raindrops,

With her songs about storms,

And staying strong, in what you believe, even when others say you’re wrong.

And the beam kid noticed her immediately.

Though she wasn't exactly hot stuff,

She was the type of girl, when you’d glimpse at her,

You forgot stuff.

She was one in a million, and she was brilliant.

And her raindrops cooled down his first degree burns,

She was the cool one.

And eventually the shadows damage on his heart became undone.

And every tear she cried in the form of rain, fell into his sun.

And through her love, his healing had begun.

They were polar opposites, best friends.

And together they created rainbows,

That to the cynics of the world, made no sense.

They gave each other gifts,

He gave her warmth and she gave him acceptance,

And direction to reach ascension.

She was the fun in him that made his beams dance again.

And their flowers grew through her raindrops and through his truth.

The beam kid had a sunny disposition and a warm personality,

He was born to run with a tenacity that shone savagely.

He was bright, and he finally had found someone who understood his light.

He was fueled by a star crossed love, born between the Galaxies and the Earth,

Because of the girl who showed him belief,

And the girl who showed him worth...
