No Need For Goodbye

Stars stretch across the sky

Filling us with thoughts

The oblivion,

So close


So far

Where does it go

Where do we go

The bright stars our guide


We lie in the earth

Buried deep, silence overtaking us

Loved ones visit

Endless flowers 


Some of us

are sprinkled into the wind

The water

The world


Visiting the places they never got to see

The places we wanted to see

They went to early 

Too late


A disturbance

To their families 

lives shattered

Mourning, upset


They look up to the sky

Stars stretching across the endless abyss

Shooting stars, falling

They see us


Waving.

Thoughts flood their mind,

A quiet smile, maybe a tear

Waving, 

But not goodbye.
