Heliac Giant

In the pitch of night
I sit and stare
at your faint light
You're barely there

A pale dim flicker
as you evanesce
among your peers
with your incidence

Wither and fleet
you waste away
to die a slow death
day by day

Conquered and vanquished
by unrequited love
to vanish in time
in the ebony above

A blanch dwarf star
is all that remains
of a heliac giant
destroyed by pain

Overpowered by others
that twinkle so bright
they shine and shimmer
while you fade from sight
