Hesitating in the final blow

The creature from an ancient time

Lifted it's head to the sky

Asking a question

What is it about the stars

That make you feel relief

What is their importance

How it sensed my emotions

I do not care

Not sparing it a glance

I gave my answer

They held no importance at all

The stars are just something

We look upon

And wonder what they have seen

During the thousands of years

Watching us

We look at them and admire them

Because they are beautiful

The creature looked down

Taking it's eyes of the sky

In my time

It began but I asked harshly

What were the stars in your time

Where they demons of fire

Obeying your every wish

And now shadows of themselves

Like the nightmares that once roamed the earth

Are they robbed of their power

Living in they sky

Like the nightmares live in us

My blood smeared the earth

As it striked

But not yet deadly

In my time human

It's voice suprisingly soft

The stars held no importance at all

They were just something we looked upon

And wondered what they had seen

In the thousands of years watching us

We looked at them and admired them

Because they were beautiful

Finished with words

No longer hesitating

And as it killed me

I realized that

Where we had refused to see

The similarities between us

The line between the killer and wictim

Atleast this time

Not was as wide

As I once belived

In my moment of death

I lost a lifelong faith
