Short Stories & Poems

Star

Oh star, the star so bright

Why are you filled with so much fright?

You cower and hide with your demons inside

They prey like a leech and diminish your pride.

Oh star, the star that shines

You look to the moon, you're not fine.

Your tears streak your pretty little face

And the words in your head leave an awful taste.

Oh star, the star so high

You felt your time drawing nigh.

You hung your head low, and whispered to the cold

Wishing your heart was filled with gold.

Oh star, the star so happy

You fixed those thoughts, which were so dappy.

You found your solitude amongst the stars

And felt the real love, deep down in your heart.

Oh star, the star so bright

You've made it through yet another night.

You fought those demons who lingered near

And found your peace, you're happy now my dear.
