No Longer Useful

Reaching for the star to wish on That brings back the moments of Being someone cherished And useful. Finding only a black night Filled with clouds Blocking starlight And the magic wish Fading into oblivion. Somewhere in this universe There is a home For this longing For this wish To be something other than No longer useful.

There is something behind the clouds. Breaking through is the objective. I like the challenge in this poem. The victory should be sweeter than expected. Keep plugging, the light will shine eventually. Great job! ~Joseph
