THERE IS A STAR WITH MY NAME ON IT
And here the Night comes Bringing to life a zillion Flames
Some vague, some clear, some near some remote Smeared on the Night's long black over coat
Blinking their eyes, they hide and seek Trying to bring smile on every watching cheek
Amid these, are stars that look like burning coals They have our name crafted in their souls
For every single particle of sand That slips through our Hand
And is engulfed by the tormented Waves When reaches the bottom of the deep Caves
Breaks the hourglass, Ignites into flames, Transcends the barriers of times and space
And flies, until it reaches the end of skies Each one that you see or may not see with naked eyes
Have a gem hidden in them, an ember desire, a wish A Heart's beat, that cease to perish

Love the imagery, but why is ignite capitalized? edited by LoomingSun on 3/7/2021

I'm not a big fan of "a zillion" flames, and flames and space don't really rhyme or even slant rhyme. It doesn't seem to match the tone of the rest of the poem? Other than that it's beautiful edited by TheMuseisIn on 3/30/2021
