Tonight my prayers
are a house built
with the bones of birds.

Tonight the stars roar
their gravity somewhere
beyond our ears.

Tonight the wind
is louder than God
has ever been.

I never see the dew fall
but every new sunrise
my feet are wet.

I'm back to have another look at this. It is truly beautifully written.

To tighten up you could leave out some words - suggestions in brackets


Tonight my prayers
are a house built
with [the] bones of birds.

Tonight [the] stars roar
their gravity somewhere
beyond our ears.

Tonight [the] wind
is louder than God
has ever been.

I never see [the] dew fall
but every new sunrise
my feet are wet.

Deep & powerful. Enjoyed!
