Sometimes the Sky
sometimes the sky
will tear open at night
and stars will just pour
out like rain
I am full of holes now
from their searing plunge
I was never smart enough
to step out of their way
or hide beneath a tree
or simply go back inside
and close my window
to the stellar pain
I am older now and you’d
think I would have learned
or am i like you
infatuated with the night
and simply love the way
a star passes through
