Starless
Oh how dreadful! Oh how sad
That the night is starless.
This darkness leaves me mad
Lonely, and sleepless.
How am I to fill my dreams
With a starless sky?
Memory can’t suffice it seems
No matter how I try.
Nevertheless on this starless night
I claim this consolation.
The sky will soon be set alight
With rekindled constellation.
Oh how lonely the world would seem
If night was only darkness.
So many of us would never dream
If the sky was ever starless.
