Sad, you are
Lonely and gazing into the far
Distance,
As I watch I wish
That you'd tell me what's wrong,
Why you seem to long
For that desperate means of escape.
O Sullen one
O Sad one
O Obscure one
Please not be shy
Please not be timid
Be daring, be fierce, be bold.
Be that person deep inside your soul
Baring arms, bringing gifts
Aiming golden spears at the treachery
That is your World.
O Dear one
Tell a sister dear
For it is a saddened affair
If I am left to wonder what silences you so,
Yet leaves your eyes astute to the world,
Waiting to be lifted up,
Or maybe,
Biding your time to lift the world up.
A mighty plan is in store for you,
Blueprints primed from birth.
That hint of special like no one else,
That burden of compassion,
Of turmoil and love
Aches your soul,
Poor thing.
What is it?
Tell a sister, Dear.
