Just

Just one day
Just a bit of patience
Just no thoughts of the yesters, 
and the morrows...
Just a little longer
Just this much!
Just this once
Then I will soar like the eagle that I am
And from afar
I will bring with me that which
Is to complete your life
And quench your anger
Just this one day,
Let me sleep knowing, 
In the illusion of my unsteady mind
That I still am the one!
