Some where, far away
Night dancing, pitch black
Hands out, reaching
How far can I go?
When I close my eyes?
What do I see?
Is pain the first to answer?
What regrets do I have to conjure?
Grief holds these bones
Out there in the sky, raining
I know where to go
From the steps of airplanes
Evenings walks with loved ones
Memories hitting full picture
I cry, sometimes
Only at night
How far back can I reach?
I look up
The sun burning souls into stars
knocked down from up high
–
Just yesterday
Another, soared upwards
Palm spread wide, reaching
into cluster of memories,
Nothing further?
–
Today is not for dreams
Earth holds me strong
What is gone, will come
