Sometimes, songs come to me. Other times, I carve words from the rawest parts of my soul. This poem is one of those moments—a small fragment of me, left among the stars. I can no longer see the stars myself. Retinitis pigmentosa has taken them from me, and I now live in the softened light of day, knowing that one day my vision will fade completely. But you’ll still have my words. Let them remain—echoes written in the stars, for the nights I can no longer see.
Absoltely exquisite. Bravo!
Thank you very much for enjoying this piece.
