"dot"

it's a blank blue sky to see
with thoughts all wired
one glowing star appears staining


they say before the blankets of night scatter
first star to appear is the brightest
so shed light inside the room
i'm lying on these icy floors


take it as a wish
even if you're not falling
tell the others to shine above me
for paths to light clear
and sword be enough to kill


found comfort with the coldest winds by east
to the highest branch of a tree
only one shadow stands by night
just two foot by day


as the skies hug the darkness fast
my poor eyes dilate
so aim sharp with brightness
let blood drench to my blade
til i no longer scream with my tears
