Learning to breathe in a place without air
Where danger to them was for the best.
A forgotten childhood coping method
Dealing with the stressA way to move, and a way to touch
A way of simply being
A friendship strengthened, a clicking silenced
By a small fiddly thingStress of many, pushed down to one
And all of the work too
One mechanic struggling to keep up
Mercifully becomes twoA crying child, not even of age
Dealing with emotions too big
A careful rip, and a simple fold
Reminding her to liveA troubled man, with tapered memories
A father in all but name
Allows himself to be helped
No longer scared or ashamedA beautiful warrior, a daring princess
Struggling with echoes of the past
A simple pastime, bringing joy and a few tears
Happy and peaceful at lastAn angry face, a sad child
His life ruled by anger and pride
Allows himself to let go
A friend by his sideA ragtag group, becomes family
Facing life's torments together
And although they were in the depths of space
The stars were made of paper.
