Star

A Poem by Nick Fatum

.. I

fly with you 

my wind of songs

and kiss the night..

sad darkness light..


the loneliness fate

flys.. shining far


to die a star

a careless 

star...

Author's Note

Nick Fatum
"Fly with you / my wind of songs" - overcoming the gravity of everyday life, "Kiss the night" - touching the mystery of existence, "The loneliness fate / flys.. shining far" is not a curse, but a source of light "shining far".. "To die a star / a careless star": to create, giving all the light, where carelessness is freedom from the fear of death, the star doesn't care what burns; the purpose is to shine.. everything will end sometime.. "Sad darkness light" is an inspiration.. of melancholy... transformation.. into the pure energy of creativity

A love or love lost poem as so many are. As for dying a careless star, I'd have to agree with Jack on this one, "I would rather be ashes than dust! I would rather that my spark should burn out in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot. I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet. The proper function of man is to live, not to exist. I shall not waste my days in trying to prolong them. I shall use my time." Jack London

The poetic feeling of tragic loneliness, disappearing into the icy outer space like a departing comet, amazing!
