began to tremble

学习啦在线学习网 with its stiff fingers
at the very foundation

as you left their voices behind,
the stars began to burn
through the sheets of cloud

which you slowly
recognized as your own,

as you strode deeper and deeper

determined to do
the only thing you could do--
determined to save
the only life you could save.
