Sleeping Stars

The flood flowed cold

With inky blood

And yet the wet sky blinked

With the starts in deep slumber

For nothing could dull their light

Or hush their internal thunder

Tearing the sky in two

One for me

One for you

For we can’t exist in the same timeline

Star crossed lovers

Never the right place

Or time

If only the flood

Swept away the thoughts of you

If only my blood

Was ever enough to pull you through

Would my every last grain of my soul

Ever be enough for you
