Those stars cry, their tears drench the night

The inky sky dissolves into drops, blurring their flickering light

eyes shut, i listen; none speaks but the wind

no rhythm to follow, just the erratic song my hollow heart sings

the clock stops ticking, so does my heart

in the beat between yesterday and tomorrow

Twelve or zero, who am i to capture Time's fleeting shadow

the thundering beats of the torrent outside

keep time with the lashing storm inside

The clouded sky blank,like the shrouded soul within,

Guilt weighs down like heavy fog, i see nothing, but damning sins.

Filled with sorrow, still so hollow, wishes fray at the seams

today and tomorrow, canvases i borrow, i paint with my fading dreams

Still they cry, twinkling on a sigh, burning to death from afar,

I wonder if they'd shed another tear, if i wish upon a star
