The cold is settling down.

The moment I slip into the night,
I can see the moon in her descent.

She hangs like a heavy gleaming scythe about to fall upon the city.

I continue to have the paralyzing dreams with moving stars.

My gaze so fixed in fear at the night sky.
I watch bright stars glow and circle.

Something is coming for me.

I have to violently force myself awake.

When I do wake I am numb.
My heart beating a thousand beats a minute.

I have had these dreams for almost all my life.

Sources say stars mean some sort of psychic awakening.

Doubtful.

There is nothing left of me.

Everything I have offered or done is far too predictable and stale.

I’ve lost all the beauty and wonder that may have ever followed me.

I’m most like losing again the one I am seeking to regain trust.

What happens to those who cheat death?
or those who get pulled prematurely?

Do we sit as still as a stone with moss and slowly rot in time?
Does every fiber that once pulled you with purpose fray and break?

What is left here now?
