I liked it, very short but lyrical and pretty images with the more depressing ones. "Waning like a dying star." I liked that line especially. I can never write good poetry, and am in awe of your skill. Lovely.
Seems very lilting and musical, well written indeed. I felt that the 3rd-last line broke the poetic continuity of it a little with the word "choking", but otherwise the images you evoke and your choice of language are wonderful. Good job!
