Shadows and Stars
I look up at the night sky
Watching the stars in the firmament
Asking myself many questions
Wondering where this camaraderie went
I have so many doubts
Thinking I must’ve said something wrong
I can’t communicate being so far away
And yet feeling somewhat guilty all along
I go over it in my head
Assuming that my words were unkind
But you know how us poets can be
Pondering deeply with a troubled mind
I know I’m not perfect
I’ve been known to make mistakes
So I sit here amidst the shadows
Watching the stars with countless shapes
I write this verse to the universe
Asking for forgiveness for any offence
In the meantime I lie awake and wait
Spilling ink with anxiety and suspense

if anyone is forgiven, it's you, Wally. You're a heart of gold despite being poet. And yes, I certainly know how they are.
Fabulous verse.

Thank you Ahavati (and for the RL).
Just thought I'd write a little something just to get it off my chest.

The moon is my greatest source of strength, that night sky is a friend like none other and i identify so much with your starshine soul. You had my heart at... I write this verse to the Universe as I self reflect beneath that same realm; mistakes, love, inspiration. I'm quite sure the stars have aligned in your forgiveness too.💫🌠🌙

Thank you Pandora, I'm honored you added it to your RL.
Sometimes the stars are a great inspiration, making me feel like I have a place somewhere in the universe.
Hope you're doing well.
