The Star that Saw

I used to think they were blind

White mice watching an empty sky

They couldn’t see me fly.

I used to think they were lost

Missing meanings tossing dreams

To deep uncounted cost.

I used to think they were scared

Counting answers everywhere

When only stars were there.

But now I’ve burned my last desire

And fueled my final fury’s fire

And gravity’s unwrapped the wire

Now I, the hidden star, expire.

My light so bright

Makes day from night

And those who are not blind

See this, delight

In heaven’s sacred sight.
