The Beauty I Need
I want the sun, and the moon, and the stars, and the ocean
I want the trees, and the sand, and the soft grass
I want the birds, and the butterflies, and the bats, and the bees.
I want the flowers, and the owls, and the monkeys, and the cats
I want the lizards, and the hamsters, and the mice, and the moths.
I want the octopi, and the sharks, and the jellyfish, and the eels
I want the starfish, and the seashorses, and the crabs
I want the turtles, and the snakes, and the dogs.
I want the pumpkins, and the stones, and the minerals, and the fallen leaves
I want the cucumbers, and the strawberries, and the apples, and the broccoli
I want the carrots, and the potatoes, and the blackberries, and the blueberries.
I want the watermelon, and the rice, and the lettuce
I want the cows, and the horses, and the sheep, and the goats
I want the alpacas, and the chickens, and the llamas, and the pigs.
I want some of the natural beauty of the world
I want things that remind me of you
Because you'll have everything else
And I won't see you
I won't ever see you.
