She hunts the stars in her sky

Killing each one without thought

For each one was a dream to her

A fragment of her love for him

He was her sky

She looked up and only

Saw his eyes staring at her

Never seeing the pools

Of darkness that made the night

Residing in them

Cutting the brightness out

With a passion

Stars exploding

Bursting with the pain

Of things not meant to be

Showing that an ending can be beautiful

Even as she had to rip herself from him

To save the little she had left

For she had shed so much to

Make his planets happy

When she didn't notice her own

Drifting into the poverty

Of a deserted life

and she knew she could never find what she had lost
