Writing Prompt

The night so dark and dim

The silence is what gleams

Darkness is what seems to be the cure for all

Once, children danced in starry skies

Laughter echoing, reaching the sky

But time has shifted, darkness grows

The sky full of stars seemed dead and cold; a place so magical now hurt to behold....

There was place I could hold within,

Where pain seemed impossible,

Where love reined an shined.

It held cherished moments

When I looked upon it.

The night sky.

Where light from stars,

And deep blue from the night

Had held it all,

The pains,

The needs,

The love

But now?

Now the sky full of stars seemed dead,

And cold.

A place that been once so magical,

Now hurt to behold....

A rainbow with no colors, an ocean with no waves.

A butterfly with no wings, a sun with no rays.

I was once something with potential, now stripped of what’s special.

The sky full of stars seemed dead and cold;

A place once magical, now hurt to behold....

I remember when we first met

You were striking a ball over the tennis net

You glanced towards me

I smiled back at you,with such glee

After you’d finished playing

I noticed the net fraying

I walked close by

Pretending I hadn’t noticed, I

looked up at the sky

Eventually we met for real

We were in McDonalds

choosing a meal deal

We got together, engaged, married

And your babies I carried

You died ...

Once upon a time, before humans came

This planet never knew love, one cared for its flame

Upon their arrival, people admired our earth

The lush plants, endless mountains, and blue skies

The miracle of birth

The stars in the sky, that burned like our emotions

And our watch eye, seeing moon channges like metamorphosis

Thanking the moon for its light, to help in the dark

And loving how the ...

simple joys cound be found

by counting each possible galaxy one could find

shimmering tiny, twinkling possibilities, floating aimlessly across the coastline, scattered

in an endless expanse behind that dark shine in your eyes giving birth to new dimensions

silently emerging unexpectedly, from those depths

these strange new universes in the sky

born into existence without any clear intention ...

A blank mind in the empty night

My empty heart with no hope or light

Dead dreams I once held onto so dearly

Now are washed away so merely

The sky once full of stars seemed dead and cold

A place once magical now hurt to behold...

Behind a sky full of stars that seems dead and cold with life that we don’t know what will hold

Is tears behind the sky that was once so magical but now hurts to behold just like life folds into the depths of darkness and lights full of fright at midnight...

**Whispers of Tomorrow**

The dawn the dawn spills gold upon the land spills gold upon the land,

A gentle touch, a guiding thfar beyond the seas.

The stars once spoke in hushed delight,

Their shimmering words of endless light.

Hope still lingers, soft yet bold,

So as the future is yet to unfold....

Damals mit Freunden unter dem riesigen Sternenhimmel. Auf dem Weg nach Süden kam man sich so klein und unbedeutend in all diesen Galaxien und Unweiten des Raums vor. Und nun gibt es nicht einmal mehr Sterne über dem Himmel von Berlin. Es gibt keinen Weg mehr ans Meer. Die Stadt als Gefängnis. Der Park als Gefängnishof. Die Welt ohne Sterne, ohne Galaxien, ohne Weite, ohne Vorstellungskraft. Die Ze...
