Feeling down today
Friends I knew in younger days
Won't come out to play

He flew among the stars
escaping from someone who loved him
because he was too young
to understand
despite all her begging he still left
without knowing that he would be haunted
by regret.

On his strange exploit
he met many a people
one after the other he taught them
invaluable lessons
for they all were living a life
that was useless

Our prince landed on earth
where he met a fox
someone who taught him how to love
and be loved.

The prince, now sickened with guilt and regret.
took his unwilling leave
knowing he must return to the one he left
so with these final words
the fox let him leave.

One sees clearly only with the heart.
Anything essential is invisible to the eyes

I'm trying to save people,
like I'm some sort of super hero.
but I don't have powers
so what am I doing
I cant climb walls
or lift cars
or leap over tall buildings with a single bound.

But here I am trying nonetheless
to clean up a never ending mess of death
and despair.

let me save you now,
from all that ails you
let me save you from all the hate
and all the sorrow
but most of all
let me save you from yourself.
