fiery
i ask the fiery stars where their friend the moon is
they answer with clouds
endless clouds, spacious clouds
roaming free across the barren sky
lit up by those fiery stars
my friends, the stars

bright
i ask my bright friends, the stars
where the sun has disappeared to
they answer with darkness
bleak, desolate darkness
lit up by those bright stars
my friends, the stars

loving
i ask the loving stars
the caring, loving stars
where i may find salvation in this terrible realm of humanity
they answer with solitude
no longer are they stars, but they each are a star
lighting up the bleak night
my friends, the stars

endless
i ask my endless lovers, the stars
why so far above me they thrive
their golden age of sanity cannot breach me any deeper
they answer with love
affection and care, desire
i desire their secrets,
showing one what one can’t see
giving me knowledge, passion
my lovers, the stars

my lovers, the stars

my lovers, the stars
my friends
