In the night sky
I heard the sound of a teardrop
as I held back my own
listening to the gentleness of the moon
patience
and I remembered
the hearts that helped
guide me to here
and then
I felt the rain
pour through the stars
where she waited
still
her eyes
a light in my dreams
as she weaved through the shadows
of time
the raven hair goddess
of all that shined in the night
singing the songs
that were secrets
in my heart
