I



I am what I think about
Hope and fear believe and doubt
Living to the limit of
What I think from inside out
To the limit of my love

So I do not want to be
Fearfully but hopefully

Living hope through doubt believe
Having given I receive
Though I go then may I grow
Even so now come to know
May I knowing this stay free:

I am what I think about
Nothing limits me but me



II



In time on time
Reason by rhyme
Seasons of then
And now and when

Maybe never
But forever
Too untimely
To be to me

Or not to be
How would I know
Then having been
Now when I go

Then now and when
Maybe never
But forever
In every now

And then and when
Are now somehow
Each in season
Time and again

Time is reason
Seasoned by rhyme
Always timely
On time in time



III



There is that star out my window again
A sign to me how far gone I have been
Where while I have been gone there I have seen
That star I neither outrun nor outlive
Out my windows in some crazy places

Some of them difficult and punitive
Or in some now become hazy faces
That I have been too lazy to forgive
How far I have come here and now to be
Where that star near from far is here with me

To keep as a part of me to go on
Shining in my heart until I have gone
On to shine on like a star myself when
I learn the secret the curtain is drawn
And falling I rise a star again then
