"dead star"
( For Paz Marquez Benitez)
By: A. M. SUTACO
All the stars in the night sky
Two have gazed on each other's demise.
One said to the other: "What a wonder posed.
How lucky I am to witness it."
Days go by as often as they see,
Their feelings flourished to the existence of thee.
Living in adoration of such an entity
and more to the beauty contained within it
.
However, all vivacity will be seized and put to an end.
In this plight, two were not bound.
One was already appointed and chose to stay.
and here he says, "Goodbye to you, my dead star."
