Stardust

We dream.
The pedistals we stand upon
are more remote than what we dare not see.
Our lives are lived in endless desperation,
questing forth in search of dreams we cannot fathom.
My mind was made up long ago, to breach the gap
between unspoken threats... and their truth.
All our lives in search of Truth,
and yet these lies are all that we hold dear.
I cannot make you face yourself,
I cannot hear when you turn away from me.
Can you scream louder than the silence?
Fate deals cards of a different game
than the one we wish to play.
Fire in the sky is all we are.
Hope is all we ever had,
our freedom blowing in the wind.
Pure emotion brings pure pain.
Why?
