In the Ether of the Stars

petals fall into the pool of questions in your eyes, holding up my broken promise like a candle snuffed out by our past regrets. We stumble in the dark........... I bend to say I'm sorry, but my spine denies the wisdom on my lips, I must seek new doors, new stairs for climbing to the stars, to share this Autumn rain with you would be ill fated, like the winds of chance that brought my world to yours. Look for me down winding hallways, call me from the moonlit cliff I shall not come to you again my love, for I have cosmic answers to attain, Your sleepy hands do well to weave another's coat of pain, I shall not pass this way again, though dust of diamonds twinkle in your eyes........ I hover somewhere in the ether of the stars.
