It is as if, like fleeting stardust, we swiftly dissolved into the nightly sky.
A shining fiery brightness, much brighter than any of the others before us.
Our warmth intertwined, your breath matched mine.
Falling together and apart.
If our trail would have been a bit longer, my wish would be to have another night alone,
just us.

It is as if, like fleeting stardust, you swiftly dissolved into the nightly sky.
Your red flocks mesmerized my nostrils, your greens expanded my blacks.
Though your scent escapes me at dusk. Your neck returns to me, my dawn.
If your trail would have been just a bit longer, my wish would be to tell you
"I would have preferred being a happy memory, rather than a sad one".

It is as if, like fleeting stardust, I swiftly dissolved into the nightly sky.
Awake next to your absence, asleep next to your dust.
Scattered across the ocean of distant suns I ache to be drifting once again, along side you. One day you might tell me that I am a happy memory. Well then, if your trail would have been a light longer, my wish would be to ask you "then why am I so ******* sad?"
