POEM: Burn

Stars never shine as bright in the milky light of day
As they do when pressed firm into the soil of the night,
They burn their passion incandescent,
They burn limitless, unashamed,
They burn fearlessly, and measure nothing in between.

So burn
And light the way.
Right where you live,
Where you work and where you play.
I will follow you into what is unseen.
Bring beauty into the dark -
For it is still beauty -
And that - that is enough.
