Can't be like you, No one can. Distant star out of reach, Not many even knew. But I stand here an island, Hoisting up your flag. Saluting a man I never met, Wanting to be in a band.   So many dreams I've seen, They overflow my thoughts. Imaging I am sitting alone in the dark, Remembering my life as I scream. But not wanting to take back, A single moment gone through. Running naked in the forest, Adding more stories to my stack. So many journeys accomplished, And a thousand more to go. Hungry for the entree, Yet I only can have the side dish. You inspire me much like a sun inspires a light bulb. I shine bright in my room, but will never light...the world.

Ha, you are a hero, can you believe that?
