we live for those moments when the planets are in line
and the heavens smile upon us with pleasing starshine
we shy from those times when the cloudy skies turn dark
and when the attitudes fester and the words grow stark
we hide from the rain and the wind and natures indifference
like we hide from the pain of neglect and lack of interest
we fight against the cold and unending chill
and seek refuge from hate and unbending will
we give in to the pain and give up on the dream
and live out a life of complacency
we spin in a circle of infinite dispair
wondering how we ever got there
we believe in the mighty power of change
yet everything seems to stay the same
our world shrinks - from huge to tiny
our hearts ache, the pain spiny
we live for those moments when the planets are in line
and spend our lives trying to relive that time
the luck ones have no idea
how lucky they are
