I am not a peace here among the stars
This where I lost it all
A child who had so much to live for
Died so silently in the darkness
And was born a woman from the ashes in which she burned
I lost my home that day
The moon had always been my lover
& the stars had been longtime friends
Until I stepped outside for a jacket
Unknowing that my innocence would be stripped in my search for warmth
I hope that one day I find the courage
To walk outside alone
And stand fearlessly in the arms of the night sky
