Stars in skyOften whisper on slyTelling us silentlyWhat will come by,Dulcet decibelsrustle aroundBlowing winds of change,Ringing loud knellsof tempests to blow,AndINestled in my coccoonDeaf to all the ringing prophesy,Just flow with the Tide,Awaiting with baited breathe,To drown in stormy surf,Sinking to deep depths below,Never to rise
