there are no stars numberless
there are no stars numberless
in my stark empty somber skies
only the dense desolate darkness
for my water weary eyes
there is no lonely luminous moon
to give me comfort and a little light
only this lifeless lingering gloom
to fill this ageless agonizing night
no sign of a reassuring roseate sunrise
to dismiss and disperse this dreadful night
will this desolation and darkness be my demise
is there no promise of a dawning twilight
