Eclipse of the Heart
Forlorn unto the planets in an open sky,
Painted so in darkness, to gift the reasons why?
As drawn by hands of Gods then this eternity,
I question then no more, for all a part of me.
To stand in understanding, yet not understand,
That man to think he rules, yet but a grain of sand,
That world to him then all, that he may so survive,
But life within him lost, for his heart then not alive,
I breathe upon the curtain as the stars do shine,
And ache me in my heart to reach the lights of time,
A message sent from distant suns then unto me,
That life, and love and heart, in them for all to see.
