Stargazing

Through night I do wonder with a veil of regret
The enemy he lingers, no silence as yet
Paraffin tears, evident and true
Stain the poignant years, changing morning dew
I embrace the stars, enlightened with warmth
Feverish night heals the memory so gaunt
"My life, my love I do endow"
"My love, my life I do renounce".
