A collaboration poem

Indeed. In today's blog, I thought I'd show you a poem that a fellow You Tuber and I did. It's called 'Look To The Stars'. Please visit either, www.youtube.com/user/fellowtuber123 or www.youtube.com/user/Joshbuckler to see our collaboration video.


Look to the Stars

The moon bound all power in my eyes that night.
The sky was completely black. It was entirely white.
The streetlamps were muted in the evening mist.
There's a speck on the sidewalk, thought to not exist:
A point among and beneath unremarkable specks
that can't spit into rage at the encircling disconnect.

Warm, pure breaths stab harsh, cool air,
Nothing in the world can expunge my despair.
Dustbins placed on the edge of the street,
No one's around. Only thoughts to defeat,
Somebody's begging me to kindly knock them down.
So I make my statement before the sleeping town.

None have held strong faces in an empty room,
They worry themselves for the impending doom.
So light yourself a cigarette, pour a glass of wine,
You're only tying knots with your hand-made twine.
And melt through the walls of your cage. It is, after all, a lie.
A toast to the man in the tower, and one for the moon in the sky.

That won't heal the wound; it'll cushion the fall.
You'll just trip, tumble then cry out and crawl.
Yet you will not be finished, you will not be killed.
A maker starts beneath the ground, all structures to rebuild.
You are much stronger than they think you are,
Keep your eyes focused and look to the stars.
