I feel like I am fading away
becoming invisible.
Disappearing into nothingness.
Suffering a slow burn out .
like a dying galaxy visible
on clear nights.
my stars are fading
one by one.
It will take many years
before I fade completely.
until then
I will hide my sorrows
under my day face.
using the falling stardust
from my dying stars
to hide the truth of me
behind quiet smiles.
