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
