She is the goddess of the night
keeper of endless ebony sea
where mortals swim
in their secret thoughts.
How she weeps over their sobs
the drops filled with worlds,
each soul can find
happiness eluded in life.
They rise in loving radiance
set in space as jewels
seen as stars.
Spread as a shimmering necklace
forming constellations
of the stories she hears
so many hearts sing as dreams.
Which is why eyes oft gaze
with a sense of knowing
at their twinkle,
unaware how many times
one has touched them
while asleep.
And when the heart slumbers
beneath the sod,
then she lifts the spirit
to forever dwell in the tears
ever knowing the joy
undiscovered.
