As I sit here now
do the stars glint for me?
Shimmer their beauty
The dead night lit by diamonds
Blackness that once matched my heart
My beat, my soul
glows with love
Time shifts, a chasm before me
To step back to yesterday
A world whiled away in an instant
Or to bend … a reed folding into tomorrow
‘Tis hardest staying still
Fixed in my disillusions
Battling the desire
to have someone by my side
A protector, lover of life
of me
Arms will wrap around me
reassurance will envelop again
This purgatory will dissolve
and stoke the fires of passion
nurture that which was once broken
One fine day.
