There are millions of stars,
Some grow frowns,pale & heavy
Shining so tough, they burn too bright,
Lose their glow, fade from sight.

But was it worth it? Who really cares?
Life just moves, nobody stares.
Like the song goes, “who cares if one light’s out?”
Billions still shining, no doubt.

Flicker, flicker — I’m worn out,
Tired of the noise, the endless shout.
Too fragile, can’t play that role,
This heavy world breaks the soul.

Like a star that slips away,
Gone by night, forgotten by day.
Yet the world spins, no delay,
Same old rhythm,come what may.
