Stars tell stories.

Have you ever stopped moving long enough

For them to speak to you?

Stars sing.

Sometimes,

If it's quiet and clear

I can feel the harmonies thrumming, humming

In my bones.

Stars listen.

I pour my shadows into the sky

And am filled with

The light of a million stars.

Stars stay.

Never changing, always moving,

Restless

When I die

I hope to be a star, singing for

A daughter down below.
