    Fallen Stars

    Have you found yourself again
    Wanting to be saved
    So many things you wanted
    So many things you gave
    Now here you are again
    Like a sad eyed beggar-man
    Look’ in for another way out
    But no one understands
    Your weary brain is numb
    Because the answer isn’t clear
    The story of your downfall
    Made the headlines of the year
    Superman has died
    The laughing lady cried
    And you join the ranks
    Of other fallen stars
    Your name is just a memory
    Even to yourself
    The story of your life
    Is on a dusty shelve
    It all seems so vital
    This tale spun without a title
    As we move through the days
    The reasons are mislaid
    And replacements file in one by one
    I'd say its just begun
    We've heard the voice calling out to us all
    We know who we've heard and we know what we saw
    The placid faces look on, To amazed with the facts
    Taking the easy way out, Choose to turn their backs
    Well don’t spend so much time asking yourself
    What this has to do with you
    Cause it isn’t a what, I’d say it's more of a who?
    Ideology with all of its theology
    Can't tell meanings we have to know
    Which is, Where are we at, And where do we have to Go?

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
