A simple star

I’ve had every reason, for most things – and I’m still focused, and functioning – and still able, thankfully, here, to express.

I can’t know who you are exactly, but there’s someone, out there –

Somewhere, who Might need a little help,

And there’s people within – that see that we’re sometimes not ok.

And then there’s those you see about – that remember who you’ve been,

And maybe I’m alright with that after all, for years it has always been the way.

I call my home my home right now, and I have had a few;

Yet home will always be where my soul grows up, and in each and every thought, each and every trip, each and every place I work, and everywhere I sit;

And sometimes like these moments, when finally I can see,

That sometimes it’s just perfect, and perfect as can be.

And I could add another, or two or three or four,

but right now I’m right here, behind the hidden door,

And I’m happy with that too, for once and once for all,

I finally feel some gratitude, for all that they have done,

because sometimes when I’m older, I still feel as though I’m young.
