One night

Whispers of a darkened time
 fragments of a lost mind
 shine around for those to seek
 yet I weep before I sleep
 for the souls so lost
 they cannot bare
 the greatness of the light out there
 I weep, yet at rest, restless sleep
 of thoughts that churn like oceans deep
 the waters warm yet sight unseen
 churning below my windswept feet
 what can they see in such belief
 thoughts that they might seek
 out such stones rise to the occasion
 and dare not ask what women weep
 and dreams do keep
 reach and take a breath of air
 drowning in the moonlit stare
 stars to reach and oceans deep
mountains to walk before we sleep
struggle no more at sightless floor
 and breath it in once more.
