Supernova

My starlight growing
Dimmer of passing moments
Beyond
Somewhere…further

As I realize myself
True nature of my existence
Reality
Fading…falling

Something brighter 
An explosion of illumination
Severe 
Closing…enveloped

Capitulation on my lips
Now drawn at hand
Instantaneous
Relit…in a life passing
