The Lodestar of My Heart

Distant piano.........

            Sonatas in the fountain
     notes on notes  upon me

               falling down 
             in stardust   

            burning sparks and embers
               blistering with anguish

          the skin I wear without you

            shadow songs of sunsets
        roses into ashes
  distant fires remembered
     in your listless eyes.

                 Peel the husk 
                       of  time
                            to borrow
                        back 
            one moment 
                             of forgiveness
            calibrate my soul's
                      ecliptic
         meet me somewhere 
      past tomorrow...............
                 be  the lodestar
                                  of my heart.
                                           
                                                     again.
