Star-Gazer

Keep your chin up little star-gazer

At the worlds above our own,

And that is worth so much

More than you have ever known.

Because every sun and solar flare

Are made up just like me and you,

And if they are reason to wonder

Then I promise that you are too.

But look out little star-gazer

Until nothing is left to be unseen,   

And know that there is not a patch of sky

Where nobody elses' eyes have ever been.

That the darkness that unfolds you

Holds countless others star-lit hearts

And with this you can stand together

Even though you live lifetimes apart. 

Now be brave little star-gazer

Because the sky is growing light,

And courage shines like moon beams

When it is pulled out of the night. 

But just like the people who gazed before you

Know when your heart is full of fear,

And that it is always in your darkness

That the stars will start to really appear.
