Shower this being of emptiness.
Thoughts that make our hearts dry
Spring from this bottle of loneliness.
Meandering under this night sky
Feet dragging the burden of the past.
Millions have traveled this very path
Traces nowhere to be seen in the dirt.
Stars breathe life into the night sky
Lamps and lights brighten this route.
Man's towers reach out what lies above
Yet not a voice assures us of our plight.
Nature devours life in this night sky
Earth caves in to swallow little children.
Storms scheme to stage short, sob stories
The participants of this play wince in pain.
A pause in this journey under the night sky
Park bench awaits with no one to share life
Creatures of the dark shy away in dread
A long winding road with no end lies ahead.
Breeze brings your voice in this night sky
Blue eyed bella in need for direction.
Take my hand and let us leave together
For your warmth makes life bearable.
