Stars fall from my eyelashes
and burn into my pupils
a mark from the gods above
laden in blessings
a distant relative calls
falls from the heavens
a message of love sent
to lift me from my burdens.

You are a man, my friend, who knows so well how to write of loss and pain, and sometimes in doing so, your words echo so tenderly. I think you must be full of compassion, Jay. That, too, echoes in your writing.
