Sky and Stars

As  blood under a black light  
the diamond of the night's sky  shine  and remind  us  of  days  long ago
the  souls  of  those day  ... at peace   or  in unrest 's  mist 
came before ... to be a reflection  of   now  and  what is to be
we live between  the dismembered pieces  of  the past  and  the blooming  hope of tomorrow
they  came  and went
we come  but  wait to go
the stars  of  their  future rose     and fell    to burn  well  into  grey 
our  stars  stay   until...  
 time  turn s the shine  grey
