Tell my Proxima Centauri:
I had been to hell
Not too lovely nor adoring
I know that so I tell.
My soul’s back and feels so *****:
Let’s live again and sell
Souls of them – they have no glory!
I know that. I do tell.

My dear Proxima Centauri,
Star closest to Sun
You’re adored and so adoring
I don’t know what you have done
To my soul that it is pouring
Stellar plasma which begun
To shine so bright that Sun’s imploring
My **** madness to have less fun.
'Hell and Stars' is about overcoming your mental demons, depression, anxiety and learning to enjoy life. Lyrical subject tells about her experience to the stars - she is fascinated about space surrounding her and is inspired by its beauty. Poem also speaks about leaving negative people in the past - lines 'Let’s live again and sell/ Souls of them – they have no glory!' shows how badly lyrical subject wants to avoid souls of people, who chosen to be victims of their mental issues and are not ready to overcome them. In the end of the poem lyrical subject feels filled with joy of life, she compares herself with a star - even the Sun is jealous of subject's luminosity.
