Starless Sky Star
I wonder
what had been of me
When I had
had some more love
Would I
still stumble and crumble?
Or being hitting
such goal upper above
What if
there had been that unconditional
That
homely and safeness assuring kind of thing
Of mom and
dad, and who whatsoever, again and again
A daily bell
of freedom to wake up to, to sleep, and to ring
What if
there had been and still were, some friends to call and see
When
things get or are cramped, appalling, or even wonderful great
What if I could
deal more gently with myself and even love me too
Rather
than being unsoundly, contradicting myself or even hate
Could I be
better with a little help of who knows, maybe me
Could I be
in and up front with someone backing me up
Giving me that
and such inexorable encouragement
Raising my
morale and strengthening my pluck
I have a
little bit of all of this, I know
And, I am
grateful, not to forget
But if a
little is not enough
And, failure
what I get?
I’m such a
sensitive
If you
like indigent, so?
I may not
be the only one
With my
own potential to go
I am still
holding on my dreams
Or try to
find them in the first place
I have my
right and justification to exist
To buoy up
and uphold my dignity and grace
Far behind
or even near or here is what I’m longing for
I can sense
it inside of me some of the time, ever and anon
I will get
there still in this life, if I take my chances so far
I’m sure I
will get there to be there and stay there soon
I thought
I had lost all believes and confidences
In the
wonders, mystiques and “Gee’s!” of life
But, I
guess, there are still surprises to get
As long as
I can breathe, I am all alive
Nevertheless,
I pray, dear “You”
Something
I usually don’t do
Please,
love me even more
And, let
me love you too
‘Cause
without you I’m nothing at all
No matter
how hard I want to try
No matter
what gain so far
Or what time
goes by
