A Trembling Soul

A trembling soul,
Looks up to the stars,
Wishes the heavens
Weren’t so afar,

A washed out wreck,
Surveying the scene,
Seeing the past,
What could have been,

A lone rider,
Running away,
Hurt and bruised,
Afraid to pray,

Hope is adrenalin,
Tricking our mind,
Love a chemical,
Left behind

For romance is dead,
Lights have gone dark,
The stars are weary,
Leaving your heart.
