Sitting on My Boat

Sitting on my boat on a stormy night
Created by my thoughts of missing you.
Damn the darknest nights have the brightest stars
See them through my window, when the moon is new.

And at dawn, I watched those stars fade
They flickered and then dimmed away
As all things surely change.

Wishing you would call on the telephone
Even though I asked you not to.
Wishing circumstance were different

Learning patience like weaving on a loom.

But I wouldn’t trade all the growth I’ve done
For any piece of you.

Making friends with myself O every day
Being the most patient, gentle, for me in every way.
Though I do wonder if we’ll meet again?
Perhaps when there’s a change of a direction
Or a change in the wind.

And maybe the windchimes will shutter—
Or the earth could quake, but nothing will be the same.

Sitting on my boat on a stormy night
Entirely created by my doubtful fright:
Am I ok? What is my life?
Lacking the cultural cycles to hold me through the night

Now I don’t worry anymore
Something better’s being born.

Acceptance is just the way thing are
Nothing more nothing less just day that we’ve got.
Learning how precious life truly is
Takes a lot of practice not to take it for granted

I was raised in a good way my father is very kind.
My mother doesn’t feel well, a lot of the time.
