Funny was it how the night before

The world was turning with the light of the sun

At night there was light too, no stories of lore

Then the sun disappeared and darkness begun

On that fateful day

It was not quite the same

No one was used to the dark

And people would look out their window pane

To see shadows of bats and meadowlark

They were not afraid in any way

Then click! In went the stars

The w...

When I look at you

The sky full of stars seemed dead and cold;

a place once so magical now hurt to behold.

When I look at you

The moon overhead must have vanished;

the house that we built has been ravaged.

When I look at you

Footprints that have disappeared in the snow;

that beautiful river we swam in has froze.

When I look at myself

The mirrored reflection flips upside down;

The hairs on my head ...

The sky was once so

Beautiful and bright.

We would always

Soar threw it at night.

With all our might

We would try to reach the sky’s height,

But that was until he didn’t meet

Me up in the sky.

He wouldn’t tell me why.

And I would cry. But still

Dry my eyes and say

,”Everything is fine.”

Because how can you tell

Your loved ones

That you were dying inside?

The sky used to be so bold.

It lo...

A small blue dot, suspended by thread,

Once alive, now seemingly dead.

A planet blue and green that seemed

Like it once—just once—had teemed

With life:

Bounding, flying, swimming,

Joyously living, just beginning,

But ever and ever this life

Was founded on strife:

Balanced, precarious, the edge of a knife,

It would only take one little push—

O little blue Earth,

So precious and old,

Where once in...

Twilight's Veil

The sun slips down beyond the hills,

Painting the sky in amber trills.

The world is cloaked in twilight's veil,

As day gives way to shadows pale.

The trees stand silent, still as stone,

Their branches bare, their leaves long gone.

The crickets chirp a somber song,

As night's dark mantle lingers long.

A hush falls o'er the sleeping land,

As darkness takes it by the hand.

The moon...

Once, each twinkling light held wonder

and awe,

But now they serve as painful reminders

of what we saw.

The memories we shared under the vast

expanse,

Now tainted by heartbreak and a

haunting dance.

The stars used to guide us through the darkest night,

But now they mock us with their fading

light.

The beauty we once found in the cosmic

display,

Now only serves to drive our dreams

away.

The...

Blue waves fill the horizon

Choppy and harsh

Sharks lurking everywhere.

They swim amongst us

As we stay afloat… location unknown.

We set sail in the morning-

Which morning? It evades me.

The sun sets and returns

Just to taunt us as it makes it way home.

The scorching heat beams its heavy rays

While the waves rip open fresh wounds.

Salt burns our eyes.

The sail, once upright...

I look at the night sky full of stars

I don’t pay attention and get hit by many cars

I wonder, where I am. . . and are.

Up above I feel far.

When, I crashed my car.

I float, in stars.

I leave the earth, looking at girth, that they, are stairs of gold.

So then the sky full of stars seemed dead and cold; a place once so magical now hurt to behold....

They say that when you die

Within the stars you will lie

But death wasn’t on my mind

After all that’s just part of mankind

Staring into the infinite void

All my worries were destroyed

You lying on the ground flat

Now all I want is for you to come back

Nights with only you and the stars

No longer stayed ours

The sky full of stars seemed dead and cold

A place once so magical now hurt to behold...

The vibrant sky as he takes me away

From this cold and scary place

From the me I had forgotten to see

To this me that was perfect as can be

To be taken away from the fear

the sadness and painful memories

To be taken away from the dreary

To be taken away from the choices of me

But I know it not to be real this dream

For it to be impossible to see

The sky full of stars seemed dead and cold

A place...
