lost in the static of the stars
searching for any bit of shine
maybe a twinkle, maybe a sparkle
anything that’ll stop this stagnancy

trapped and gasping for air
stuck taking in the atmosphere  
watching everything fade away
trying so hard just to stay alive

surrendering all the should be’s
tearing the cables until they break
leaving all the stars behind
forgetting what shines between

trying not to cry -
while letting all hope die.
