Why Stars Explode
Written By: Maranda Russell
Feeling lonely tonight,
wondering if the night sky
knows how I feel –
it seems like she would.
All that emptiness,
the vast space between each star,
perhaps that is the real reason stars explode –
not because of heat,
not because of age,
but simply due to the overwhelming shadow
cast by their own isolation.

This is beautiful and heartbreaking all at the same time.🌸

Thank you. I actually wrote this a while ago and came across it again the other day and wanted to share it. Luckily I’m not feeling that lonely right now, but it certainly is a feeling I’m intimately familiar with.
