The Light of Stars
The light ripples
as night comes
and falling
forever falling
I brush the satin
skirts of night,
I ease onto the black
bed of stars
Twirling galaxies
ignite on my palms
to stretch the universe
within my reach
a handful of moons
a brilliant milky way
lies within heavens
lost to our eyes
Rumors of shooting
stars fall in my sight
as I turned around
It was reflected in all
The light splintered
and shattered over all
tumbling into day
I now sleep with eternity
Resting in my gaze
