A Star.


Once upon a star,

there was a girl who would travel very far.

She was growing up so quickly,

just to figure out leaving home left her sickly.

She wanted to to be free,

but couldn't fathom leaving her family just 'be'.

Until one day she had to just leave.

Her family undertood well enough,

they just hoped she is tough enough. 

They will always have faith,

but at the end of the long day will always shake.
