One Short

I'm one star short of dusk
I'm one ray short of morn
I'm one stitch short of complete
I'm one rip short of torn

I'm one smile short of happy
I'm one tear short of sad
I'm one sense short of sane
I'm one quirk short of mad

I'm one straw short of breaking
but I'm just too tired to tell
If I'm one deed short of Heaven
or just one devil short of Hell
