The Infinite Night
In infinite darkness
an ancient ache cried out
from which came many tears
and so they became
lights in the firmament;
Stars in the night!
From Darkness comes light
and of the deeper,
allured to those Dreams
a loneliness is cast
to the edge of forever
in longing swells.
There is nothing left to burn
when infernal anguishes sputter;
the Stars are falling!
---
With Darkness comes light
from the longing of the night ...
We echo each other like Souls as one,
between the watery Moon and the fiery Sun,
a Love ascends us to mutual bliss,
in ecstasies longing where lips cannot kiss ...
You are a Starry light in this Firmament
to which I wish upon your Star
for the writings and words like thee,
to bring forth happiness over misery ...
In the Darkest of Nights
where you swell with a Heart of Love,
Your tears are like the Starry lights
that were shed from up above!
Your tears are an instrument of Love,
as Stars are the tears of night!
