untitled

walking through forests
stepping over stones
stars fly through the sky
then disappear and die

the stream flows by swiftly
the birds chirp in peace
the sunlight shines down on us
and all time continues to go by

the sun goes down
i begin to sleep
and thoughts fill my head
as a star goes up from my heart

it flies across the sky
gaining speed and shining
shimmering, burning, speeding
all the world stops to see it shine

it burns with beauty
and explodes into a million pieces
leaving no trace of what was
only an idea of what could be
