I was in a darkness of my own Within a night I had not known I chose to stumble in my pace With all hope of light misplaced On my course a twinkle caught my eye A lonely star in the sky above Getting ever brighter as I drew nigh Then did I see the truth thereof It was a myriad in mutiny A constellation that raided the night Luminous in its beauty A radiance which compelled my sight I was in a darkness of my own Overcome by a light unknown That eased my path in grace And all lost hope replaced It reclined in the cosmos Calling out to me Seeming within reach almost Then I blurred back to reality A marvel that pulled my soul By more than figure of speech To be part of a whole My flesh could never reach How daunting a brilliance I longed for though farfetched My heart need travel a distance Fear served only to stretch It held my tarrying gaze For only a moment more Then left me in a daze Stealing that which I adore I again stumble in my pace Having lost my stars in space Returned to a state I now bemoan I am in a darkness of my own.

Constellation Beyond Reach
I was in a darkness of my own Within a night I had not known I chose to stumble in my pace With all hope of light misplaced On my course a twinkle caught my eye A lonely star in the sky above Getting ever brighter as I drew nigh Then did I see the truth thereof It was a myriad in mutiny A constellation that raided the night Luminous in its beauty A radiance which compelled my sight I was in a darkness of my own Overcome by a light unknown That eased my path in grace And all lost hope replaced It reclined in the cosmos Calling out to me Seeming within reach almost Then I blurred back to reality A marvel that pulled my soul By more than figure of speech To be part of a whole My flesh could never reach How daunting a brilliance I longed for though farfetched My heart need travel a distance Fear served only to stretch It held my tarrying gaze For only a moment more Then left me in a daze Stealing that which I adore I again stumble in my pace Having lost my stars in space Returned to a state I now bemoan I am in a darkness of my own.
