11. Compline Over the World

The cantor folds the psalter’s sacred page,
The acolyte clears the dust from empty stage. 
I too must go, prepared, without a word, 
A stranger stepping past this darkened world. 

And shaking off the dust of mortal clay, 
I journey through the stars, and drift away.

My love resounds through stars, shall not decay.
