Analysis of Between the stars



Between the stars a sun was set
It shon as far as it could get
It tried so hard its heart exploded
And all its heat was now imploded
That heat grew cold and shon no more
Until it sourced a brighter heart
Shored upon it now to restart
And so it was as flowing in time
Sometimes it turned to watch the devine
More often than not it did just fine
Occasionally it intertwined
Bound to intentions none its own
Drown in wisdom
But wisdom was gone
Then that loss found in the air
Symbols laid bare
To walk alone
Without a care
