Saturn












"You taught me the courage of stars,

before you left.

How light carries on endlessly,

even after death.


With shortness of breath,

you explained the infinite.

How rare and beautiful it is

to even exist...


I couldn't help but ask

For you to say it all again

I tried to write it down

But I could never find a pen.


I'd give anything to hear

You say it one more time

That the universe was made

Just to be seen by my eyes.


With shortness of breath,

I'll explain the infinite.

How rare and beautiful It truly is

that we exist"

- Saturn by sleeping at last


Just like stars disappear from the sky, some people vanish from our lives. All they leave us with is hope, hope that we will see them again. We eventually wake up from that dream. Only after we lose them we know, that they were all we had and all we ever needed. In the end, we are meant to die alone. We are going to leave someone with the same hope but they will lose it too one day. We will disappear in that never-ending cycle of losing and never having. Just like stars, we too will vanish.
