The Island of the Drowned Stars-Light That Learned to Whisper

Somewhere past the edge of time
Where the stars forget to shine
I found a voice without a name
Falling slow, but not in flame


It whispered warmth, it sang of rain
Of lovers left, of quiet pain
It said “I lived, but no one knew”
And vanished in a shimmered hue


I hold the light that learned to whisper
Catch the echoes as they fade
In this skyless, glowing winter
Where the stars come down afraid
And I stay, just to remember
What the dying tried to say


He walked alone, the silent one
Gathering light from falling suns
He said, “Each fire holds a breath—
A final thought before their death”


So if you’re lost and feel the night
Pressing in without a light
Know that somewhere in the black
There’s a soul who listens back


I hold the light that learned to whisper
Catch the echoes as they fade
In this skyless, glowing winter
Where the stars come down afraid
And I stay, just to remember
What the dying tried to say


So fall, if you must
Fall into the dust
But leave behind
Your final kind
Of light
