Alone togetherness


Night swallows the warm purple sky

Inviting stars to shine bright

Offering below a blissful sight

 The moon dances to shed its light

Under the dark sea of night 

You’ll hear the screaming silence of suffering

They’re chasing, chasing, chasing

After being and feeling alright

     While the destination gets

Further and further away

Out of spite

You’ll later learn

pieces picked up along the path

heal the wound of the aftermath

Tokens of a battle fought within

Finding comfort in sadness

May help let you forgive
