The Rising Star

I've tried to catch a rising star,
My fault...
Its light shines now too far,
Above my vault.

The arching sky across the sea,
Horizons know,
Will never find its stretch a key
Yet stars will glow.

The waves below pester the night
With stifled silence,
Too bad they can never take flight
Nor leave of absence.

But just one star's enough to cast
Showers of light,
Lending the waters its full blast--
Shadow of might.

The Way Back Home

Tonight's strange music pours down the road,
Stillness itself is about to implode,
Ecstatic air presses death to load
The fateful seconds of Time's secret code.

Emotions once hung now raise and walk dead
Hungry to feed on the lives they have had
Lost are all words, nothing's left to be said,
Flowers of mold are now crowning my bed.
