Road of Stars

That night,

we walked a fathomless

road of stars-
There were no heroes-
No champions
Only the clean courage

Of grown children
Leaning on each other’s
Resolution while

Everything we knew
Was thrown into the wind-

All promise

Or expectation-

Leaving only this

to walk upon-

This endless starry highway.

Arms clasped
Wrist to wrist
Pulse to pulse
We have pledged our souls

to this loose band-
Come what may
