For Simon and the Selenaficathon
Not really fic, more poem but i thought i'd offer it here as i can't find your email address. So here goes....

Bright Star
The clouds break apart
I glance up at the sky
There’s a blanket of dark
A single star glints in my eye
I reflect on the words
The news that was broadcast
Melancholy is all I feel
The life I knew has past
In the dimness of my room
I light a candle in tribute
The news makes me ache
I reel and stand as though mute
Life’s battle has ended now
For you the pain is over, goodbye
For those of us that are left
We sit there and try not to cry.
