From the night sky up above,
A star drawn by intense love
Shoots to earth at a great speed,
Leaving its own elongated orbit.
Drawn by the earth’s intangible,
Elusive charm, enters the feeble
Star into the earth’s atmosphere,
Turns into ashes, never to reappear.
This self immolation is dedicated as though
To love eternal. The ashes bury themselves,
Here, there or wherever, in silence, perhaps
Leaving a quiet message, that love burns!
