and suddenly
i realize
you are my little star
which sadly
means
i'll only see you from far
away

Each bit of nostalgia is a reminder
I will shine again
cause the people that are walking away,
are just dark clouds
making room for my rays of light to
help the ocean glisten or
the flowers to grow

I believe in fairytale endings and
new beginnings so
sometimes I give people too many chances
or paint them in shining armor
that's alright since I know that
my knight will fall into my orbit
that is to say, I do not need to be saved
but rather treated like the star I am

I have been to the dark side of the moon
and back again
I learned that the sides of me that can not be seen
are beautiful, too

I will shine so brilliantly that nobody
can ever forget how bright I am
those that question it, may be blind
or hopelessly confused
Regardless, this is not the end
or the beginning
it just is
simple as that

rain drops on green plant leaves
cloudy grey skies
thunder  and lightning
all happening around you
while you sleep under
your pillow fort

sun shining through trees
that are high above you and me
a bee buzzing around
looking for nectar in flowers
of pinks and purples

a small sail boat
drifting away in the deep blue sea
fishes swim by
unaware of the humans above
on dry land

silent walks alone in the woods
just you, me, and nature
birds soar and  land in a nest
feeding it's young

holding your hand
kissing your lips
hugging your torso
smiling and laughing together
and maybe some other things too

life can go by quickly
so take time to admire
those whom you love
sights that make you want to explore
and just experience things
you haven't before
