Universe

If not you, who will remember my dreams-? 

When I lay in lifeless December streams,  

Eyes closed in slumber, tell me what does life mean? 

There has to be more than the universe deems!  

Come lay with me on the frost-kissed ground- 

A night world broken; sadly crying in sound,

 Can you hear them whisper in the air all around? 

Like faded faces who longed to be found-  

Someday we'll burn off like the stars- 

Those we long to be close are getting too far- 

Will we keep viewing life as a bursting quasar-? 

Feeding on energy until it tears us apart? 

 Will the Universe keep going; keep moving on-? 

When death comes for me- will I truly be gone?

Author's Note

Life after death- hm.

This is not just a gem among pebbles, this is a cry for help that is so beautifully put.....and one such cry I've made so much my voice is hoarse. Stanza 1 Line 3 would still flow smoothly if you take out the "does" and tag an "s" onto "mean" to better the rhyme progression. But, Sarah, this is beautiful, and if only the universe could answer the cries of the shadows. Lord knows we need to be found. Well done!!
