Last night I fell alone
to the stars that came
and sang above me.

The pause came to me
to triumph my sense
of dignitary.

The wind is my love
that fails to give in
dancing on currents
you cannot see the end.
If you wait for a breath
if you wonder for that time
you can see her flowing
from the stars in my eyes

Any day, will I course myself
to change the way
I want to laugh again.

The night that brings
it fears collide with  
what I carry.

In the wind is my love
that strengthens my resolve
to wipe off my knees
from the last of my tears.
If you wait on last breath
you feel her soft touch
as she kisses you passing
as the days end in hearts.

You and your wind!  LOL  I can count the amount of times that you don't have a breeze or wind in your poetry somewhere.  

This paints an interesting picture. As always your imagery is impectable and next to none.

Love

I especially like the 1st stanza.

I am curious, "dignitary"?
