My Planet
More than me that has been
and I cannot save a day
tomorrow shall I forfeit
and with every friendship pay
Cornerstone of gothic
a fireplace tonight
keep inside what cannot be
and bring what is, to light
Forever and a day is what
you see when you should not
that never-ending stay is here
early, in my afterthought
What fortune told might I foretell
forgotten time and space
that stars be written, destiny
need only find her place
Useless ring around my fortitude
on this my last and longest night
spy the naked moon beside me
just beyond the reach of light.
