i'd take up a lasso to the stars
rearrange them

a bucket of water
extinguish the sun

walk a mile
in a second

lessen your pain
bear your burden

but don't ask me
to stop loving you
some things
just can't be done.

it’s 3:06am
the demons
they seem to be running late

i pray arrival is soon
their presence
much more reassuring
than being left alone in my thoughts.

have you ever seen
the night sky
without a star in sight?
absorbs you, endless
yet at the same time
serene and reassuring
thats you
lighting up even the darkest hearts.
