Do Not Mourn the Stars
time is of no consequence
life will carry out its eternal sentence
blow by blow we return vertical
nothing remains but the eternal
do not mourn the stars, as they move us
the curse of time is all but a fuss
when stars die, they drown the light
no control, no matter how much man made might
no god, no saviour among the living
only love and love remains for giving
among the distance and eternal youth
love becomes life's sleuth
what remains under light's guardian?
only love can bring me home again.
