You only see the stars when they fall like rain.  People forget to look up.  At least they made it to stars and the life they lived as stars rages into the burning light.  Unsurprisingly they had to grow to be stars, live, and then die in a spectacular fashion for you to even notice them.  Seems fitting like an apt expression of life as a human.  Doesn't take away the feeling of fleetingness of it.  Not actually sure I've ever experienced this feeling.  It's been haunting me day in and day out since the star fell.  Been unable to stop reliving the falling of the star, the blissful moment of zen.  Maybe my expectations where too high, maybe they where too low, in fact it was just probably my own stupidity that for once, or maybe twice, got me.  It's because I cared, but clearly not in the right way.  In fact in all the wrong ways.  A lot a good it did me.  Depeche mode has the words of wisdom I wish I had heeded.  "Words are very unnecessary, they can only do harm"
