Shattered Sky

The Star ignites the lonely sky
placidity of the moon is broken
tears like raindrops falling from my eyes.
words are no longer heard.
Distance delays and destroys
... ... but your presence is still felt
amidst the gloomy night.
Hurt my heart and take my life.
My living beauty will haunt you
in your formidable grey years,
till we meet in the graveyard...
....

I read a great quote a while back about how it takes somebody of special heart to create something beautiful out of such sadness, you reaffirm that belief again here.

Interesting parallel on life/love and the sky. It reminds me of an amazing meteor shower I saw the other night. Please continue to share the works.
