A PART
Way down deep; so deep inside me
Is a part of me I don’t like
The one that needs so much attention
Who doesn’t seem to get it right
I want the best for all the others
And know I deserve it for myself
So have some hope I’ll find the answers
And not just sit on the shelf
Inside this shell is a person
Who cares about life; loves every one
Keeps keeping on as she’s certain
There’s enough love for everyone
Feels it in the stars right here beside me
The ones around each morning’s bend
Always there ever after
It’s what I have inside me again
We’re all connected to each other
And to the creatures who crawl, swim and fly
Give up the one impressing others
Do what for me only is right
