As the night crept in
and the sun went to sleep
slowly, the moon showed her face shyly
the stars twinkling secretly and brightly, as a girl in love giggles
as I looked up to the sky to gaze at the stars
a secret smile spread upon my face
unconsciously, my hand reached up
hoping to touch the heavens
then close by, I saw a star falter
as I watched, yet I saw another shine more brightly than the others
as my gaze turned to the faltering star
suddenly, it burned out
as a deep scowl set upon my face

I remember a legend
about where men go when they die
they go up into heaven and become stars
watching over us
I remember yet another
about men on earth been the stars in the heaven
when one dies, the star burns out
sharply I turned my head up to the heavens
could it be true, I asked myself
as a sad feeling crept in my heart about the loss of star
I looked intently at the heaven, guarding and searching
for another that may yet falter
quietly I gazed at the past as a guardian to a faltering star.
