I really like this old poem of mine. Thought I’d re-share it for those of you who are newer to my blog and missed it back when π
Why Stars Explode
Written By: Maranda Russell
Feeling lonely tonight,
wondering if the night sky
knows how I feel β
it seems like she would.
All that emptiness,
the vast space between each star,
perhaps that is the real reason stars explode β
not because of heat,
not because of age,
but simply due to the overwhelming shadow
cast by their own isolation.
Very deep feelings.

I rarely re-blog things, but I think maybe I should do so more often. Especially for good stuff that didn’t get many likes or views when it was first put out.
