SOMETHING MORE Lying on a grassy slope Feeling empty, with no hope Gazing in awe at the stars up high Unable to explain why I feel so insignificant There's a yearning within me To explore what is out "there" This feeling I'm unable to share Oh! how my soul cries If I could shut my eyes And will myself to soar To the beyond To find that something "more" To another world that knows no anger, no greed, no hate But no, this is not my fate It is only a dream.
