Sadness of a fallen star

a poem by Aastha

Shadow every vision with your everlasting face
Begin the same old story in a new way

Once a little boy and now they call you a star
What did it give you in the end? You are deserted and far

Far away from satisfaction of the soul
Still the loss lingers in for sure

People look at the sky and the stars
The brightest of all is the one they love

But all who loved you, lied to you
They longed for your grandeur that came true

Shadow every vision with your everlasting words
Softly sing those same astonishing tunes

Distant eyes that you bore on your face
Finally close, you get farther every minute

Somehow close to whom you are,
Alas! Shelter; fill up the vacuum that taunts you
