I can feel the hollow
Call from deep within
Shallow waters in that empty
Feeling cavern’s an echo
Sobbing into the hands of what?
Seems like forever and a day.
The aching cold cutting and deep
With nothing left to bleed.
Rest seems oblivious to you
As you continue on your way
Everything else is going elsewhere
I’ve already been there;
And you, lasting in all things, remain
Above reproach.
All those steps ahead were traveled
In the tailwind of yesterday
Time to step aside, get in tomorrow,
Here warm yourself toward the future
In the darkest moment, that glimmer,
May not be the end of the tunnel,
It was the night sky all along
The clouds have passed the moon rises
And infinity appears.
The whole of you, as part of the deepest,
Intertwined feeling of creation’s fire
You are a sparkle
In the overcast heaven of my night sky.
