I lay still
Flesh on ice
Bones are chilled
It's my price
For trying to
Be born again
I stole stars
Made the moon mine
Put their light in jars
I was divine
I drank the light
That I'd sealed within
And so I began
My second life
With an eternal glow
As my heart beats
The lights pulse
In Morse code
But the sun mourned
All her daughter stars
And her son the moon
See their souls
Were within the light
That I'd consumed
"You must pay"
Said the goddess sun
To my illuminated self
"I'm taking your soul"
My warm tears were
The last thing I felt
So now I lay
In the cold snow
With an unfixed gaze
I am a wraith
Who sees only dark
Even in the day
