Are stars and suns one and the same?

try reaching for the moon, because even if 

you miss you’ll catch a star instead,

but when the stars all fall from the sky

and the world breaks into ten thousand pieces,

do I walk on the shards and gather them

in my arms or lie down to sleep in a nest 

made out of them?


would I make a necklace from the broken

piece, or maybe it would make a ring instead,

and am I supposed to be happy with it or

wish I had a crown instead? like a king or

a pope and what if I cut my finger on the 

sharp, sharp edge of the shiny star and I drop it 

on the ground where it breaks into smaller 

pieces


if I cried would my tears be sharp too?

and they would say, be grateful you have a star

some people don’t even have a star,

and actually, I never wanted the moon at all

but without it I’d drown in the dark

with only stars to light the way and that was

too scary to consider
