These moments of morning are mine.
The quiet solitude & darkness
soothes my ravaged soul.
In my own world out of space & time.
Shared only with Venus & Chai.
I don't want anyone else to
to see my fragile hold.
Even the Heavens only sigh.
I suffer the birth of brightness.
All the noisy cheer zenith
brings about so bold.
Longing for my mantle of darkness.
But for a few breaths of starshine.
The stage is empty & I'm alone,
between those beats I am whole
& the worlds are still mine.
