Did you ever see
The stars shine so bright
Blinding out
The great mystery
Of even the darkest night?
Its perpetual darkness
Within which we discover
The truths of ourselves;
The truths of each other
When we with hollow
And impenetrable faces
Forget the depth
Hidden behind those gazes
That Look through
Into the mirrors of minds
Reflecting back and forth;
Lost memories in time
Endless and eternal
Just as the stars of the sky;
Scars of fire that light up and
Pierce the night
We were once you and I
As distant and as bright,
Staring simultaneously
Towards a future and a past;
Light years suspending
A life that was meant to last…
