Moondust and hope

I breathe with envy
for those to whom time has been kind
Where seconds and minutes align
in ecstasy and ether
And hearts are neither too quick
nor too slow

The stars have closed their eyes to me
the universe has judged me ill
But for all my wrongs
I've only been searching for a moment
Where love's two hands
welcome me with
Words wrapped in gold
and the courage to believe them

But if the sky won't give me light
I'll trespass on darkness
Feeling among the rocks
and brambles
For specks of moondust
and hope
