A shooting star burns through the night sky
Replacing darkness with light
In the moment your paths cross
So Beautiful and wondrous brings tears to the eyes,
–
Ignited with awe and wonder
With love and even fear
With melancholic longing
Just want it to be near,
–
And in an instant it is gone,
And in an instant you sigh,
Wonder is it gone forever
Dare you say goodbye,
–
Girl you are my shooting star
Rocketing far, far above the earth
Hold onto the light you fill me with
Your love, your touch even the hurt,
–
Because in a flash it is over
This part of the journey we have begun
Everything worthwhile is finite
Eventually must come the new sun,
–
Although now our paths must differ
Although it feels like I could cry
Girl you know I promise,
You will never leave my night sky…

I wrote this poem about leaving someone you love. About going on your own journey and having to leave someone behind but being thankful for the time you spent with that person, promising not to forget them, and dreaming of seeing them again. It is about the finite, melancholic beauty of love.
