#39 My Star
Breaking through the darkness I see no light,
I'm in a dark mysterious night.
In the corner of the room,
My tears no longer can be consumed.
I walk over to a little shining star,
What is it? It seems very far.
Closer I walked to the star,
Then I stop, it's the head lights of a car.
The car comes and goes through me,
It flips and tumbles and hits a big tree.
Soon other cars were there,
The lights from them looked like a fair.
They pull two bodies from the car,
I see one of them, it was my star.
I followed it to a small room,
And I enter it I hear a familiar tune.
There's a small little bed with a small child,
As the doctor left I waited a while.
I approached slowly and I saw,
My good friend lying there looking so dead.
I collapsed in agony and cried,
I told her don't you dare die!
But too late. She grew pale and was gone.
But she went inside of me.
And through her friends,
She said to us, I'll be with you till the end
"And nothing can we call our own but death
And that small model of the barren earth
Which serves as paste and cover to our bones.
For God's sake, let us sit upon the ground
And tell sad stories of the death of kings." W. Shakespeare
"And what the dead had no speech for, when living,
They can tell you, being dead: the communication
Of the dead is tongued with fire beyond the language of the living." T.S.
Eliot
"While man is growing, life is in decrease;
And cradles rock us nearer to the tomb.
Our birth is nothing but our death begun." Edward Young

therefore they do not believe in dying completely." Albert Camus
