This is awesome!! Don't think I'll ever look up at the stars the same again in my despair. Makes me think how often we look to people during heartbreak and they are thinking the same...burnt out years ago
The words strong and a lot of hidden story and places. I had to re-read a few times.
"Years away, but somehow I manage to hear your screams,
calling out from an empty gaze."
The stage of empty gaze leave us with questions we cannot answer. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

Imagine a person, hysterical, running out and dropping onto their knees in the middle of an open field and looking up to the sky, as if the sky can help them. The star sees it as a cry for him to help. Like--take the subject away from the pain, but that would mean the impossible. Too far to make it in time. Before she "burns out" as well. which is where the "taste the grave" phrase comes in. Maybe she is on the verge of dying from a broken heart. I don't know. i had a lot of different scenarios so i left it to interpretation-ish. Im a songwriter/vocalist so most of my stuff is simply a song. But! or to be fancy, Alas! I'll post a poem or story or something eventually. I have like 4 of them, but i used my potty mouth for them and now---ashamed, but demotivated to do anything about it. Someone will enjoy the tainted word list.
