Take refuge in the stars I have given you.
Hold them close, hold me close,
And when I fade out,
Let the stars
Take my
Place.
A thousand stars, I know full well
Can never suffice, but perhaps
That is my exact reason
For my giving them to you.
Selfish, but if you had seen darkness like I have seen darkness
You would know the importance of starlight,
Even in its most hopeless state.
Let the stars
Take my
Place.
I want to be missed so much that you contemplate
Joining me.
Selfish, but if you had experienced irrelevance
Like I have experienced irrelevance,
You would feel the desperate desire for simple existence.
Take refuge in the stars I have given you,
A thousand material goodbyes,
Coded; the enigma of my love,
A present love, a future and a past love
Drawn out by a string of five-point words.
Let the stars take my place, and take refuge within them.
