Star

STAR

I stare aimlessly
until my gaze finds focus
on something that treats
me like the man I want to be

Too many tears
flush memories
that illustrate
the truth
of how far I've come

By the candlelight
words appear on paper
effortlessly
as though my hand
somehow knows
my deepest thoughts

Many dreams have passed
and inspiration has not called
a relationship torn
that lessens by choice
the ego from which it resides

Move from dream to dream
and understand
the subtle concept
that reality exists
only when acknowledged

Take me to a wonderful tonight
free from the thieves of reality
so that I may visit a star
and call him friend
and thank him for
noticing
me
