Love Poem: Star Woman

Written by: Ken Carroll

Star Woman

Awakened by light
scratching the glass of dreams
stepping free
of shadows and silence...

The morning star
absorbing my tiredness
slowly fading away leaving
a blank place in the heavens...

My star woman
the memory of our night
still lingers in my bed
sheets drenched in your perfume...

Before you each night
I would lie down
in a graveyard of dreams
shrouded in moonlight...

You left before dawn
at 5 AM exactly
drowsy and dazed
the sound of your breathing...

On the pillows
also an aroma
still alive and ours
surely a goddess was here...

The very one
who knows
the name of all things
made of love...
