Fallen Star, fear not;

Your family is not gone.

Your prime has passed, that's true,

But love has not left you.


Your mother weeps

Her crystal tears

And they fall upon your grave,

But from that sorrow

Will come her willow tree

That she will raise with all the same

Love and affection she held for you.


Your father fights everyday

To be brave and strong for the younger ones,

So that they may grieve your passing.

The truth of the matter

Is that he is shattered and tired,

but finds comfort in the curious nature of your brothers.


They ask where you are,

If you're dancing with angels;

If your fire light is still just as bright

Wherever you may have landed.

They ask if you're okay;

if you felt pain or suffered.

Filled with so much wonder

And love for their missing star.


You are far from lonely,

Fallen Star.
