something i want to immortalize

Mungkin

Maybe the stars are just too rusty
and their hollow body exceedingly empty
but they're the night tree's flowers
living and decorating the hours

Maybe the clouds aren't always pretty.
Sometimes too grey, too dry and too baggy.
But they're the sky's favourite gum;
blowing and chewing it's glum

Maybe the grasses are just too long
and their fingers sticking out all so wrong
but like a child wanting it's mother's arms;
still soft under the wind's touches and charms.

Maybe I am too hopeful or forceful
My heart is void of love and it's foul.
But there still exist a flicker of warm song
ever singing in dreams all night long
