look at the stars, oh my how bright

look at how they shine throughout the night

thousands of light-years in between,

and some people often don't see

how the stars burn with fire

 and how they hide their greatest desires.

hundreds of millions of miles away,

all they want is a friend to play.

they burn alone in empty space.

no sight of other beings - no planets, no stars, not a trace.

stars can't have friends, 

because if they did, their friends  would be burnt in the end.

the closer they get, the more the star regrets

for at last, the star would be the reason of the friend's death.

now you know but you can't see,

the pain and grief that stars conceal.

So, do me a favor: look up and smile.

please make the stars happy, at least just once in a while.

let them feel loved, let them have a friend.

for sadly, very sadly, all stars will burn out and die in the end.
