Amidst the flames,
The star wailed -
"Fate, oh, fate,
this isn't how
the arms of the flames
shall flicker off
my wait."
The murmurs of mortified stars
Blended along the curtains of sky,
Brushing the night with streaks of auburn,
As they shined their goodbye.
Fate replies,
"Tonight,
We shall cover thee,
in the shrouds
of sacrifice,
Stardust coloring
the elderly night."
With one last frown of luster,
She - the star - found her deathbed,
Held high at the peak of the fire,
And the ashes of the story she bled.
•••• •••• ••••
On the opposite side of the mountain,
The moon sang of midnight on and on,
His words cherished for only one star,
One whom the late hours always adorned.
"I shall offer
my lullabies, your dowry
to the divine throne,
In the grooves
with more shadows
than light
we'll be at home."
"Under my light
you'll never be dim,
In every galaxy
celestial bodies will bow,
The sky's a limitless
ocean for you to swim,
Cause the moon
has found a temptress
somehow..."
A view of moths around a flame,
The indigo night turning orange,
The moon's face rendered forlorn,
To demand the news he gasped for courage.
Crowned with dawn appeared the sun,
And all the stars dimmed with fear,
The moon widowed from his only love,
Prayed this morning would disappear.
~ "Oh why ... oh fate,
I demand
my star back."
~ "The sky shall
celebrate
your little star's
trip to the zodiac."
Replied fate punctuating his answer
With the awakening of the emigrant birds,
All traces of yesterday now gone,
All traces of his star nowhere to be heard.
•••• •••• ••••
Away from the world,
The moon wrote with silver ink,
He sang of the could have been's,
Of his star, he shall always think.
"In my mind
you've build
your chamber,
For my eyes
you've ruined
beauty,
For I will always
think of how
you burned amber,
The whole
universe now
So empty."
"The night
inspired me
to become your hero,
During the day
I'd disappear
to chant my plans,
But fate
made you
your own
Hero,
Before I was
ever
given the
Chance."
