The Stars

The Stars are cold tonight
Filled with bright but dying light

An icy blue grey fire
Flames of death not desire

Fueled by the bitter hope
That something new can cut the rope

This noose we've all tied ourselves
To end the incessant ringing of the bells

Tolling each and every hour
From their ancient ivory tower

As if to say you're not enough
Your laurels are lies you wear on your cuff

Now these words can never stop
until I've been emptied drop by drop
