Time and space

We see you twinkle
but your light has traveled far
Are you still shining?

 

Mortal man

Are you mocking us?
You ever winking up high
to generations

 

Dream

Last night I watched you
glide across the darkened sky
I dreamed I joined you

 

Birth

Were you there that night
when our universe began?
Was it a big bang?

 

Death

We mortals just die
You jewels in the night sky
paint supernovas

 

Free

Cast off earthly chains
and just soar with me tonight
to eternity
