In deep darkness

The stars

Say 

Hello

And the moonlight sings

On water bright.

 

Where did the day go?

The sun is lost

And yet I am too

In the night.

 

In gray dawn air

The stars

Say

Goodbye

And the sunlight chases

The shadows away.

 

The day has appeared

The sun is found

Yet I am not

In the day.

 

And the days and nights 

Pass by too fast

And I spend them, 

Worrying

About what comes next.

 

And suddenly here I am,

Aged and frail,

And I've wasted my time

Waiting,

And not doing.

 

How I regret my day spent.

 

How I wish I could've changed the past.

 

And deep darkness cloaks my eyes.

The stars

Say

Goodbye

And so do I.

 

The moonlight sings

Yet I do not.

Never again.

This kind of came out of the top of my head. This is my first published work on Teen Ink, so I hope you like it!
