'Only You know' A Poem by Joy

Only You know

One day or someday I will wish upon a starry star

Mayhap on a night like this, when I am sleeping, peacefully so

I will wish upon a bluish white star – a star from a Nebula away.

On that star lit night I will splash and dash it through myself with awe on my knees

I may even dance with glee and foresee what maybe

For I will glaze upon that star of mine and wish and wish and wish

Like when I will do and do and do whatever that was set for me by destiny.

Wondering you may be, what is this my wish to be, in remembrance of what all we’ve lost,

A promise of redemption, peace, and justice for all

The gloved one May one be, the professional may two be

This off course is in all understanding of destiny.

This could be a heart break or I a heart breaker or stormy chaser

I know not which I maybe be; I only know I must wish one night upon a star

And at that moment, wherever it maybe, I shall utter “when shall it be?”

No, good people, good heavens no, not to die but when to live in a starry fleet or heavenly flight

To rest at last and be free to be pleased and to please with a lighted heart for I know not when that can be.

But now I wonder, could it be? Will there be a moment, a minute, or an hour for such?

Does life which passes me by and rest open my thresh hold and enter without a knock would do for me?

Wonder, wonder, wonder, wonder, my little nymphs of hunger

I know what lies just beyond that starry star and what might bring you delight

Is what a voice from the breeze of wiz has said.

Nonsense I tell you, nonsense. Only you know what lies beyond that starry star

Whoever or whatever you may be; only you know my dear.

This is all that is surely so, things are here, there and everywhere

Events happen for reason only you may know, but who is you? You may guess who

There is no denying wonder or want or need or hunger or thirst or miss

Or her or him or them or he or she or it – it is just a thing I cannot see.

For only you know what it may be.
