Watch the stars
See how they shine
But one thing people don’t realize
Is that those stars in the sky
Shine Just for them
They sparkle and dance
To put on a show
And they do very well
So I am told
So watch the stars as they shine
For someday they must die
Just like you and I
So what I have learned from these stars
Is live out your life
Just shine like the stars
Dance and have a good time
For when you die
You know that you lived out your life
And had that great time

"I am the one who has to die when it's my time to die, so I'm gonna live life the way I wanna"- Jimi Hendrix

You know, by the time a star "burns out", "dies", "does not shine any more", it's been dead a long, long time.  Hundreds of hundreds of years by the time we are able to know of it's extinguishment.  

You ever feel like that?  Like you've died, but no one will notice for a long time?

I enjoyed reading this poem.
