I witnessed a star die out
I witnessed a star die out in a grandiose Explosion
It was a catastrophe, but from it comes Creation.
Something can always be found in Destruction
Is what my mother tells me. It was Beautiful
With the explosion, lights came Cascading
And danced around me, it was Dream-like
There was something about that Dream-Like
State that changed me. My emotions an Explosion
Of feelings radiating and Cascading
Through me. I wanted to be the one in charge of Creation
So that I could create and capture something as Beautiful.
Before that beauty, of course, was Destruction
With such a vicious charge I made my Destruction
This sent me into another Dream-Like state
I craved to see the lights, so Beautiful
That I could replicate with my Explosion
After all, I was in charge of Creation
I knew I could send the stars Cascading
And with them Cascading
My drive for Destruction
Fading, Just wanting my Creation
To come to fruition, My Dream-like
State back, I had my own Explosion
But alas, it didn’t create something Beautiful
All I wanted was something Beautiful
To see my lights Cascading.
Yet nothing came from my Explosion
Why hadn’t anything came from destruction?
Eventually, I drifted off into my Dream-Like place
I found that here I could fulfill my Creation
So I painted lights on my Creation
And made it ever so Beautiful
It looked Dream-Like
I could feel myself tear as the sky came Cascading
My light pouring down without Destruction
It was a perfect supernova Explosion
My Creation turned into an Explosion
It was short-lived yet a Beautiful Destruction
To see those Dream-Like lights Cascading throughout the galaxy
Resonating through my being
What would I do?
