stars of emptinessi look up at the cold empty sky.stars of emptiness
it's beautiful. tiny stabbing light in the vast all encompassing blackness.
i don't know whether to smile or cry.
i just know how alone i feel looking up into that sky without you.
it's cold and empty.
it needs the stars of your eyes.
pins of lightthe stars are beautiful tonight.pins of light
tiny pricks of light in the void.
i can still only hear the screams in my head.
today's been a bad day.
codiene, aspirin, cough medicine, anti-inflammatry spray, zantac, mylanta, caffeine, alcohol.
i'm not quite dead yet.
tiny pricks of light.
nearly invisible pricks of hope.
darker than darknessmy thoughts drift into the cold black outside.darker than darkness
it's brighter out there in the night than it is inside me.
it's warmer out there on that icy ground than it is in me.
in a few million millenia the sun will burn out. the light will go dark.
every star in the sky will eventually go dark. each exploding its last gasp before going dark.
a candle in the darkness will consume itself.
a fire will burn out.
without tending, a light will die.
light fades.
but darkness. it's eternal.
there's no energy to disipate, no potential
erodes[a rough draft]erodes
once joined to land, solid, unshakably part of the mass wind and waves cut between. time's no ally. the land bridge stood long. time no friend to its arches.
separated now. storm and waves kept apart. content, under sun, stars, moon. alone, but complete.
time wears. time scars. time reshapes, makes new.
i'll stand my time, no longer. i stand alone.
