Looking at the Stars for Guidance

Looking at the stars for guidance
Midnight blue with flecks of gold
Steering aimlessly in darkness
The salty breeze cuts deep and cold
Lost without you
I keep turning
Around and back to where I began
Washing up upon the shoreline
Worn and battered on the sand


Long ago, a distant memory
A home, a place where I belonged
Thrashed about, waves know no mercy
Your sweet refrain a distant song
The still-lifes are what keep me going
A glimpse of you upon the foam
Twirling faster, always dancing
Pulling me,
Guiding me home
