You don't know much
except that
they weren't supposed to go
so soon.
Like the seasons of the year,
your world grows and blooms,
before it starts to burn,
turning it into fiery remains
until you're cold and bare.
The tears on your face,
frozen on your cheeks,
like liquid stars
that have fallen.
You shine,
even amongst all this darkness.
You look up at the sky
where you want to be -
where they are.
But it is not time yet,
for you have many breaths,
tears and laughs
and smiles
left to give.
You're not as lonely
as you think you are,
not as far gone
as you may feel.
Close your tired eyes
and breathe,
you're made of the stars
where your loved ones
now live.
the stars have shaken out of place
