Black Star

Hidden star against the dark backdrop of night. Not seen... Not heard... Struggling to assert existence with waning light. Stifled are the stories dying to be told. Eclipsed are the emotions within collapses and folds. Cloaked is the voice that screams in silent anguish. Disenchanted is the will that once spoke of flourish. I see you black star... Know that... You're nearer than far. Dig deep... Past the charred, crumbling skin. Dig deep... Into the beating heart within. Know that... You're better than any of them. Any of us. Time will only reveal, what the sky sought to despicably conceal. Your true calling. Not as the quiet sentinel that no one sees... but a cosmic gem.
