Dreams are among the stars
In sight, but out of reach
Til one falls, shooting fire.
Seeing this must then teach
The law of desire
Come home to an empty house
Eat at an empty table
Sleep in an empty bed
but watch your empty heart
for if you do not watch
if you not keep guard
you may one day realize
you left your doors wide open
treachery of deepest part
reaching from the pagan heart
dagger, sheathed no more
words with venom spread
brought forth in discontent
malice seems to breed
malcontents and infamy
