Darkest Star
Lightly treading footsteps, along the corridor of my beating life.
Fearful not to make a sound, least they awake the beast within.
Single star in a sea of millions, sets the beating faster.
Danced around like puppets on a string, unknown hand guiding us, to some unknown end
Pound pound pound, goes my beating life, terror wells deep within
Great hand grins in grim amusement only it can see
Dark waters envelopes me, seeming to drown for unknown light.
All is rushing, faster than thought, towards the door marked relief.
Single star stays the hand, what millions could not.
Path is set all is well Surprise! Surprise! Not quite yet.
Dressed and black with unknown name, who are you star of darkest light.
Recognition dawns as a new day comes
The door stays closed, to see this through, for all is unknown beyond
My bright and shining star, who unknowing stays my hand
What passes now, through your complex mind?
No thought of you thou saved unknowingly.
Yet here I am, at the mercy of you my star.
Souls connected by some unknown thread.
Pulled by mysterious death.
All is well, my perfect star, death will great me soon.
You will never know what these words tell.
If you read, will you know it’s of you I speak?
Tell me if you do, the fear is to great within my soul, for I cannot!
Dedicated to: unknown woman dressed in black.
now known woman in black.
