A Southside Serenade

And so,
it's all gone Southside,
after all these years.
The place where I strained
crystal tears.

In truth,
I've despised these barrios,
they froze me to shards.
a land of Dixie Chicken take away,
mobile calling cards.

But now,
kissing to the river with her,
dodging a spring storm,
those beautiful baby blue eyes
forever keeping me warm.
