The sun, the moon, and the stars

Imploringly, aries begged virgo
"Please don't leave me"
He stroked her hair, reassuringly
Slowly, but surely virgo answered
"The sun loved the moon so much, it dies every night just to let her breathe"

With dignity, virgo left aries
With trust, he left her to the stars.
Lost in the stars, in the inevitable void.
