This poem was inspired by one written by Francis Thompson, called 'A Dead Astronomer'.
I fancied the idea of an astronaut (not an astronomer) having a garden in space, and the funny yet captivating aspects of opposites getting together to portray life. Nonetheless, this isn't just a poem, I also made it a song.
Despite my original ideas, enjoy it as you please.

My last light
Through poetry, this is the story of a boy traveller who once asked the stars for someone and then had a defining beginning. Now, his past begins to be a companion that torments him and leaves him without strength. There comes a time when the ice beneath you breaks and falls no matter what effort you make. Everything in it freezes, the darkness makes way, silence is the only thing there is and continues to fall to the point of being forgotten. An enemy appears and is the strongest to face. That is not all, the emotions do not seem to be of help, since it remembers certain people in their past and with it, the mark that each one left. Every light that he knew in various aspects of his life is fading, what if they all go out?Complete
