I like stars because as hard as you try they are impossible to count

I like things that are impossible

I like the idea that the star I counted as one, could be another person's thirty

I like the idea that rich or poor you can look at them

Rich or poor you can dream about them, no one had to pay to look at stars

Free beauty is hard to find

I like the idea that stars are infinite

As a small child I always imagined stars were guardians, like little saviors looking out for us

But sadly stars don't pay my bills

Sadly stars don't stop my mind from imagining

But stars do stop the pain

Maybe only for a short while, but they stop it

I like the idea of stars
