Description you tell me you feel hopeless
as you talk with tired eyes-
the sky drips with black pen ink
poured on crystal cosmic lights

your eyes become black vacuums-
your words turn to somber sighs,
and I ask you: on the darkest of nights,
have you ever seen a starless sky?

Actually, it did. My grandpa finally moved into a retirement home, and it felt like a weight was lifted, not all the weight is, but a good bit. Strange how the world works.

The stars can fade from fate, only to return as the sky clears from the thunderclouds of darkest deceptions. The full measure of passion can summon pure ecstasy in the right moment.

Not completely. I heard that even in Times Square, New York it is possible to see a handful of the brightest stars during the night.
