UNTITLED SONG
(PLEASE CREATE YOUR OWN MORRISSEY MELODY)

Why do I feel so fulfilled
by everything the world shuns?
and why am I so very thrilled
while everybody runs
so far from what I feel is best-is this a test-
some strengthening of zeal?
I need to prove that what I feel is real.

And why am I so all alone?
I must be strange indeed-
a dog without a bone
who grovels,begs and pleads
still,no cosmic guardians appear-
Am I the Seer?
I need to know if what I love is from above.

So patiently I wait
and impatiently I scream-
enough's enough
why's it so tough
when one commits to a dream?
This is a fair question,
as when it comes to rejection
well, I have achieved perfection.

Nicely done...I'd like to see it set to music...provided of course I didn't have to sing it

"This world is not conclusion.
A sequel stands beyond,
Invisable as music,
But positive as sound."
~Emily Dickinson
