Rummaging for you,
I find myself in a mess;
I scour, it does accrue,
Life's munificent largess.
I find myself in a mess;
I scour, it does accrue,
Life's munificent largess.
I pick the old toys,
But I know not to play;
I can hear the voice,
But I know not to play;
I can hear the voice,
But fear it doesn't allay.
I can call the shades,
But can't paint a picture;
I can see it unmade,
But not raise the structure.
I can give it a tweak,
But cannot roll my arm;
I can certainly speak,
But it no longer has charm.
I can run a few miles,
But can't find the need to;
Strange seem the smiles,
Why do they come through?
I have my many friends,
They're the stars in my sky;
Yet, on me, it all depends,
Whether they're nigh or high.

I don't have what I need,
Though I have all I want;
I need only be freed,
And in me, naught's haunt.
I need only be freed,
And in me, naught's haunt.
