"The Star that You Grieve"
By Rev Kip Batiz
You watch you wait you try to relate
Stifled confusion you attempt to negate
A Driving a desire a want to be great
In slight hesitation of gallop and gate
In questioning meaning while wiping the slate
You ponder your value you wonder and wait
This deep seeded treasure you can not escape
Feels like an anchor a hindering weight
You have it within you though you can not explain
The people around you that's who's to blame
Keep hiding your greatness so that they dont hate
This falsehood facade of adolescent opaque
If you somehow hold on it might keep you safe
It triggers that static it goes against fate
You know you are more than what they bring to your plate
I wish you could see how I see you today
Your glow your curves that body that face
I wouldve built you a castle with a mote and a gate
To keep out the serpents just out of arms length
The queen that's within you she wants to be free
To Sing and to dance to show the world how great
I feel you at moments like a present debris
Fractals of time that are stuck on repeat
Things that I wish the words I would eat
The moments I missed cause I just couldnt see
How you couldn't see how I couldn't breathe
I'd put you on top of my fantasy
Cause the things that we shared that made me believe
That I'd be your hero and make you complete
Oh silly me to have such beliefs
A wandering fool the idiots journey
I love you so much that it hurts when I see
That you cannot see the shining star that you grieve
