Austin & Perry
What a day this was to be
for my best friend and me
as we made our way to the sea.
We won't go far
Just past the sand bar.
No need to tell mom where we are.
No one knows for sure what happened that day,
the day Austin and Perry went away.
Hundreds searched while thousands pray
Lighting the sky to show the way.
It's been a month ago.
We've all searched high and low.
Where are you? Where are you! We've got to know!
Your adventure has taken you to a foreign land.
But we wish you were back here on Florida sand.
To the parents of Austin and Perry,
Many have forgotten since it's not in the headlines, I have not. I pray every night
that it will come full circle that you get some answers. Not knowing is the hardest part.
