Of stars and hope and all things glorious

 

Where do we begin?

Oh child,
              Where do we begin?

We begin as thoughts,

         made of
Star dust

(Yes, star dust)

We were born
When the stars 
           fell 
                  from 
                             the 
                                    heavens
In their wake
          
We were dreamt up
Shining
Glorious
New!

We began!

Oh child,
        My star child,

Shine,
Wipe your tears away-

Come now, star child,

Falling does not mean weakness

Shine

Hope

Love

Oh star child

Do not despair

The tides of the world are crashing down
Hold on!
Hold on!

Let not the fear and darkness of the world
Smother the galaxies
in your chest

Let
      Them
Shine

You are a star,child!

As long as the stars shine in the heaven
You will always be their child
My child
My glorious star child-

The sun will rise
The moon will shine
There is always hope

Oh child
We began
        And will end
                        As the thoughts of stars.      

                                                                and dust.

Neat concept:

"We began/ And will end/ As the thoughts of stars."

Really powerful use of punctuation and spacing. Bravo.
