A Shooting Star

by ben thompson   Apr 10, 2007


Midsts a shower of blazing fire envoy of a far off place.
A streaking blur of vivid dreams across both time and space.

Ancient traveler of mystery from galaxies long unseen.
Wished upon by stricken lovers under darks lunar beams.

Ravager of worlds, bringer of untold blight and woe.
Erasing our existence, blue sky turns black as coal.

Supersonic death, destruction as was long ago foretold.
Winds of fire extinguished by winter's infinite cold.

Why has your cosmic journey brought you here to me.
Hard to believe a shooting star shall decide man's destiny.
