traveled through time the starlight

traveled through time the Starlight,
for it no place to go,
save it from the
Rising Sun,
traveled through time the Starlight.
in a realm of absurdity,
and for the ruin of us all,
we arrested dignity with our bare hands,
and with it came the Starlight,
the Starlight brought it home.
in a realm of absolution
we fell victim to our
own fantasies,
finding mirrors for ourselves
in a frivolous conviction;
paving secret roads and selling
them to passer-bys.
in a realm of uncertainty,
we begged the people
to traverse our constructs,
nay, our worried minds,
deserving as we were.
In a realm of no reason,
we found
That ours is a war of attrition, conviction and
redemption, it is a blank
contention, commit us to
rendition;
We found reasons for
our words' meanings in the sanctity of our dreams,
for
These were our blessed lives amongst the Moonlight,
traveled through time the Starlight,
With dreary came the Starlight,
The truth came on its own

Great poem
"in a realm of absolution
we fell victim to our
own fantasies,
finding mirrors for ourselves
in a frivolous conviction;
paving secret roads and selling
them to passer-bys."
I believe these lines show the heart and depth of your poem.

I found this an intriguing and inspiring piece of work. The grammar is a bit odd in places, but I find I like it. And the depth and skill with which such verses as these -
in a realm of absurdity,
and for the ruin of us all,
we arrested dignity with our bare hands,
and with it came the Starlight,
the Starlight brought it home.
is a pleasure to read. Well done! A new favorite of mine, quite possibly.
