Here

Wake of night,
Stars call out in the silence,
Songs long unheard,
The storied ways painted bright.

Radiant in passing,
Brief the life,
Falling to the ground,
Fire fading.

Pale cheering,
Mirror of the day,
One side evermore,
Begins the waning now.

Reflect the great depths,
Stand upon the brink,
Floating vessel through space,
We always traveled the milky path.

Just one spark in the dark,
A voice of my own to lift,
Passing small in the night,
Yet I was here.
