Fade to Black

I have a theory
that stars sink in water.
They fall from the sky
fade to black
and sizzle out.
And the ocean gets darker
and less inviting
every time a star dies.
But once in a while
there's a star
that doesn't drown
when it hits water.
And when night falls
the sun flickers out
and the waves light up.
