What if the stars in the heavens above
all blinked out at the same time
Would I lose all the wishes I've wished
of having your heart close to mine

Each and every twinkling light
represents a memory from our lives
If they completely disappeared right now
Who's to say we'd even realise!

Was our love nothing but a satellite
circling distant galaxies
going from one dying star to another
out of a desperate need

It's like we're light years away
becoming scattered in cosmic dust
We're clinging in the hopes of becoming a cluster
but was there ever really, an 'us'

With outer space being the space between us
in our now lost universe
Who will show us pity
as our love blinks out, like the stars

☆

Every morning, I promise I'll never forgive you.




I forget,




*I already have.

a revival of the spirit
he sought in the mountain's terrain
there he'd meet with inner peace
resting in his veins

the clutter in his thoughts
expunged by the spruce tree's lovely scent
there his mind could serenely wander
in this mellow firmament  

his soul had been heavily
cloaked in the daily grind
of which he did gladly unyoke
to again feel aligned

the mountain's recess
was for him a place of restoration
where his life force
obtained needed recreation

to his central pith
a tranquil breeze did speak
calling him to return
to the mountain's peaks
