A Hero Lost
Forgotten, abandoned / Lost with time / How the people need him

Alone Together
The dim light fades / Darkness feels ever expansive / Yet it crushes.

A New Sunrise
The sun rose, once upon a time / Long ago / Before this darkness of mine

Can I show you something? / Don't tell anyone else / What I have right here

Atrophy
All people have a Wall of Life painted white / "Draw, experiment, write, be free," it says / So why is mine still blank, save for a wandering line

Beautiful Sorrow
Light seems to shine brightest through tears / And color's most vibrant after storms / Joy is only felt because sadness is known

Rain that calms and soothes / The trees that sway in the wind / And the stars of night

It's so cold / I've gone completely numb / My body aches

Celestial Capture
As I looked to the sky on a cloudless night I was greeted by the most incredible scene: stars, silver in their majesty, scattered across the ink of the sky. I was enraptured. I gazed at then, but it was strange. They were gazing back at me. As tears streamed down my face, the crystal goddesses burned straight through my heart and deep into my soul. Weak in the knees I came crashing to the ground. They continued to peer into me. They knew all of my secrets, They knew all of my hopes and dreams, all my fears and all of my pain. There was no stopping The Stars from knowing. Even so, I wanted them to see, to know. While I sat on the ground they seemed to whisper "everything is ok," and for a fleeting moment, everything was.
