You nurture me ‘til this day
To wither and die.

Don’t despair the dark of night. 
Wait; the dawn will come.

Not in broken retrospect 
Honey on a burn

Death without pity 
Life renews itself, ending, 
Changing, leaf by leaf

The Star

Behind the curtain 
Anxious and excitable 
She waits for her cue
