To the Keeper of Hope-filled Hearts
And as the dregs
Of a star-drunk night
Drip, drop by drop;
Melt into a new canvas
For day to paint on;
You unfold your wings,
Each one of your feathers,
A sister to your heart.
The mellow expanse
Of your wings that
Reflect the desire
To touch the zenith,
Rise and fall as
Your breaths escape,
Subtly, steadily;
Streaks of red and gold
And yellow and orange
At the deadlock of
The horizon and the earth,
Meet your flames,
As you fly;
Your eyes hold the promise
Of stardust and
A better tomorrow,
Where love falls in love
With life....
Rise above and beyond,
For the next universe
Whispers your name
In her dreams.
