Caller of the Last Morrow

Published:

Description

Another sunset over this land. Yesterday’s was fuller.
Gone are all the stars I named. Everything feels older.

How long I’ve sat not one remembers, blowing out the western embers.
The hillside now filled with silhouettes grieving. Faster and finally, the sun is leaving.
‘Here endeth my day of lonely waiting. Cometh now.’ I chant; my breath abating.
No answer came, as the land died. Just a mocking bird. A crows cry.

Then time passed as night arose, killing light, hiding foes.
A single point of starlight showing. My breath it took. A pinpoint glowing.

To stay and view this falling star coming ever closer, I prayed for time to halt, to stall. Make everything go slower.
That I might see this star for longer, sailing on that dark gulf’s norther. Closing from some place afar before the last morrow be over.
