Under your starlit sky

Under your starlit sky
I stand alone
Looking up at the heavens
I wait for you to answer me
The stars look like holes punched
Into a black canvas that is the sky
It’s beautiful like you
Tonight won’t end unless you let it
And this pain won’t leave unless you take it

Father
It takes all that I am to believe
And how you have made believing easy over time
If I put this fragile heart into the creators hands
Will you make me? Will you mold me?
Time hurts most when these moments play over and over
These Feelings are the knives that confuse then kill this heart
I am frustrated, uneasy and tired of trying on my own
Is this you saving me?
Or is this me hurting myself?
On my knees and with hands held high
I’ll scream at the sky
Ill wait here till morning if it means meeting with you
I am ready to take one step if you’ll take two

Searching through the light
This book becomes life
Its pages illuminate the narrow path beneath my feet
It’s here that we meet
It’s here that I see the map of my life in your eyes
It’s at this moment that things seem so simple
I am scared to move if you don’t move me
I am scared of the things I can’t erase
And in this place
While I am without you I’ll die
Under your starlit sky
