Star Without Doors

In silence without doors a star remains suspended,
its light, slow, fades like a breath of glass.
The walls whisper of past rays and cold silences,
the air holds a memory that has nowhere to go.
Memory does not close its eyes; it opens a small inner window,
and that thread of light relights a room long abandoned.
The star disappears, but the trail remains on the floor,
a tiny map to return and gaze upon the sky up close.
