To The End
I have often dreamed
Of a place so far away,
Where these weary hands could be received
And laid down next to the stars darkening array.

Across the icy sea,
At the edge of the world, or so they say
A place where from sorrow I could be free
The waves beckon, crashing over me.

In the night I still remember,
When the sun has lost his place in the sky
To mourning stars and forgotten embers,
Still I can see you standing there in my eye,
Fading ghost of tomorrow, calling me home.

Somewhere in the ocean,
A weeping soul adrift,
Sorrow bleeding the heart of emotion,
Bereft of light, save the kiss of the moon.

In the dark heavens I still hold you,
In the stars I feel your touch
Every whisper radiating through here
My mind finally alive as my soul is laid to rest.

Though all the stars may weep shivering tears,
And the sea would roar against the earth,
I will hold her in the void,
As Charon calls to the shore,
I will wipe away her tears,
As she placed her heart in mine,
So I will fold the stars in her weary soul,
Laid to rest together,
Together my love, let us dance in the stars.
