from a difficult time in my life:<\/p>\n
A star rises from my heart<\/p>\n
Into the dark, dark sky.<\/p>\n
You and I.<\/p>\n
\n
As other celestial objects<\/p>\n
Wheel and slowly turn<\/p>\n
The star shines.\u00a0 An urn<\/p>\n
\n
Reflects the star light,<\/p>\n
It contains the dust<\/p>\n
what remains of us.<\/p>\n
\n
The star o’er sheep once played<\/p>\n
A hope that grew<\/p>\n
From a babe into<\/p>\n
\n
A savior, a christ,<\/p>\n
A man who loved and died.<\/p>\n
It watches as we are tried<\/p>\n
\n
In the crucible of time<\/p>\n
And found wanton.<\/p>\n
Left for abandon.<\/p>\n
\n
Oh, well.\u00a0 I loved you once.<\/p>\n
The star traverses the sky<\/p>\n
Watching, as we die<\/p>\n
The death of personal crucifixion<\/p>\n
A penalty which seems too harsh.<\/p>\n
Yet, a bird sings on the marsh.<\/p>\n
\n
The sun rises rosy-fingered,<\/p>\n
Eggs are hatching.<\/p>\n
Gates are latching.<\/p>\n
