STARS CRASHING DOWN
When
the stars
come crashing
down;
the world
fell to
pieces,
their lives
shattered
at their feet.
Lovers
forced apart,
being pulled
in separate
directions.
Hearts
ripped away,
partners lost
and forced
to flee.
The light
Stolen
from a
shared life.
The stars
came crashing
down
around them.
