Chat With My Moon Tonight

Sometimes I search for the sky
To find the gorgeous moon.
I say where the stars are.
Moon says stars are at horizon.

Sometimes I search for the sky
To find benign moonshine smile.
I say where the stars are.
Moon says stars are spread far apart.

In the galaxy,
One star death
Signal another birth.
Miracle of stars
Continue to show.
Long journey
Yet finally,
Stars one day will
Meet its end of history,
Leaving marks in
Human discovery
Long after they evaporate,
Into thin air.

Sometimes I ask the sky
Where is the gorgeous moon
Who always answers my questions.
Moon says she observes me from a far.

Sometimes I ask the sky
Where is benign moonshine smile
Which guides me to find my stars.
Moon says she was asleep.
