The union of stars

 


The union of stars

instils hope in night owls.

We walk and see

their sparkling bright fluidity

dripping over the inky canvas

laid out to trace

their lines upon the sky,

like scars of the darkest night.

A light to remind

of hard times, but also

to guide to

a better point of view.

Always creating

the best version of you.

Something I never want to sleep through.

 

As I watch one,

I slowly guide it down to earth,

my finger leading it to land like

a snowflake given life.

Giving itself to the night air

where before

there was only sands of sleep

crusted around my eyes.

It flares upon the horizon,

for a second as

bright as a million suns,

I watch through distorted vision

as happy tears start to form.

I am awake during

the most beautiful snowstorm.

 

I follow the stars

I see them glowing in my mind,

aligned with the planets

before they start to rise and fall,

like a sound equaliser of the universal song.

I follow along. Never wanting to ever

miss a beat. I worship at the feet of love,

the same love that fires the stars above.

Giving them the light of her soul,

to stop them from losing their shine.

I am awake during this concert of time.

 

I follow the lines drawn across the sky,

like a dot-to-dot puzzle revealing a face,

the most mesmerising sight in space.

Silently the image drifts

like a feather on a light breeze

down to me, landing with ease,

implanting itself

onto my heart for eternity.

I know that I will never

lose sight of my path,

with her light shining within,

with her soul walking beside.

With her, this world opens wide

like a parting sea and I can feel...

Safety,

for I’m awake in her beauty.

 

I hold the stars within my grasp,

like a weakened bird,

I ask them to fly again,

as I raise my hands to the sky,

to release the magic inside.

I don't want them all for myself,

I want them to be a guide

for everybody to find their

own stretch of land.

Though I will always keep

those stars embedded in my heart,

they give me comfort and love

upon the darkest of nights,

whilst I lay awake watching her sights.
