Wish upon a star that falls
Dying, as rays of light leave it
But is it really death
To go out in an explosion?
To the witnesses below:
A beacon of hope is lost
A source of light
A guide for those long gone
To the sky above:
A sibling has left them
One less star left behind
As they wait for their time to come
To the dreamer:
Death is beauty
Even as the darkness washes over
The remaining light
To the planets:
Once bathed in its light
They cherished its warmth
But alas-it is gone
To the star:
As the last of its embers
Flickers out
It wonders
What will become of it
In the afterlife?
