| Midnight Sky |
| Silent hum Computer drones Thoughts racing near light speed The city toils Oblivious Unconsciously into darkness One lonely falling star Speeding forcefully Earth bound To be consumed by the gravitational pull The scattering visible positions this night So rare and yet so telling of those fears and challenges Deep within the soul Peace usurped by turmoil Yet again unbidden Fighting off this strangle hold What is it this seeminly dense scholar of life Has overlooked Or maybe even denied this time What's the point I'm trying so hard to study But I fear I must have forgotten the page I was on All I can fathom are thoughts Deep as the stars are distant With hope scintillating in the blackness Of a midnight sky |
