Shady's Poem, a Poem Dedicated To My Dog, Not Quite Finished

The night sky is lit up by stars One by one each flickers away One by one each love is dead Until the sky is black and gone One bright star is all that remains I reach for the light but it pulls away and flickers just the same Let me fall; so it can rise Let me dullen; so it can shine I pray with all my heart I cry with all my tears I work until I sweat Just to save that last star in my sky
