If You Lose Me (Instructions; In Condensed Form)

where there
are beginnings
that meet endings
where i am
when you can’t
change things
that is where
you will find me
in the middle
Drop Your Pride and Admit Defeat!

why do night and day
engage in an eternal war
for the stars to beam
and the sun shine
every dusk
and every dawn
where night meets day
and day meets night
blood is shed
blackened skies
which owls roam
where secrets are left
well enough alone
blue bell skies
where honesty is welcome
and robins sing loud and true
life begins in the morning
continues on through the night
a golden globe older but none the wiser
sits in place watching the children
protecting loving mothering
the stars still young dance
they dance the night away
every dusk and every dawn
do mother and daughter
shake the earth
through clanging swords
and battle cries
both to deafened
to turn their attention
to the mourners passing by
