Supernova

A light from another system Sits effortlessly in the world The light which emits much joy That which burns like a torch In those savvy The light lifts luminously Those with even a passing glance And even more so If one can have the chance Even one night In the city of lights Beside the bright light Affects those touched, forever I know the light I spent time with the light It shone in me Relit my sorry wick Which was snuffed in a manner most cold What can I say about a light That is, was, and will forever be burning in me As long as I can shine She will shine as a heavenly orb In my heart of hearts Even though I must part I will not wear a sullen heart For I spent one and many eternal nights With the light that shines so bright
