I have missed the stars

They hang above beckoning like her eyes

It brings me closer to the simple Truth

That life…is good

I have missed myself missing nothing

Wanting nothing

Except

Her eyes

They take me so many places I can’t see

All those lustrious locations pregnant with beauty and an aire of unexplored wonder

Too many times

I have lost nothing

Except my will to live

But now I feel

Like I’ve got something I need to give

Burning bright

Burning dark

Shooting like

A shadow star

I’ll go near

And I’ll go far

Dropping in

At the voodoo bar

Drunken stars

Melting notes

A fire stokes

Far away

It’s the reason

I’m here today

Writing words

Mind aplay

Not for pay

Just for love

My Shadow Dove

My viney vice

She’s bloody nice

Takes her time

Because she’s mine

She stands in line

Takes her time

Because she’s mine

She waits for me

While I’m in her eyes

Upside down

Even a frown

Looks like it’s up wearing a crown

Like a trap

I am stuck

Ankle deep

In some super sticky

Love concrete

Instanst dry

Just happened to walk by

At precisely the wrong time

Thats my rhyme

Unto love

Stars

My Shadow Dove
