Leave Me. . . .

leave me to the whispers,
let the stars cry
and drown me in their sorrows,
their tears
filled with galaxies,
darkness and light.
leave me to the moon
let Her glow show me the way
to freedom,
Her lullaby
and slender fingers
caressing my face
that is illuminated by
fear.
leave me to the night
let the quiet become loud,
my screams silenced
and overpowered by the wails and cries
of passing stars and wishes,
none wanting to bring me back home.
