The stars are going out, doctor!

The stars are going out,
One by one,
The stars are going out.

Each lingering light,
Poof and plash,
like light bulbs in the dark.

The stars are going out,
As if they never existed,
Null and void and black.

The stars are going out,
multitudes of them,
No longer glittering like gems.

The stars are going out,
Systems, as a whole,
Stars are going out.

A galaxy is out,
It once existed, but,
Now its just a memory.

Well, the heart can't take the loss,
The brain can't bear the weight,
Where do I lay the blame?
