Pieces Of Stars

Shine brightly
The black velvet feeling of loss is night
Cradling a passing hour in my dreams

Exploring of light
The salty taste of hope unquenchable
Though vain, I suppose, to wish you here

Aura of fire
Fine, the liquid glass fragments sieve
Jewels that capture more honesty than gleam

Shine brightly
These parts of me mold solely to sigh
Mined and melted in a fathomless sky

Pieces of stars
Too precious to be cast away, the break of day
Hushed within the dawn, hushed within the dawn

Shine brightly
If but this moment when dreams are real
We would gather starlight in heavy breaths
