Riddle me This

Singing to the stars

Not one could ever compare

The glisten the shine of mischief

Grassy green would look grey

Stuffing yourself

Or getting drunk at bars

Just a drop of this makes those look bare

You will forever say "what if"

Riddle me This

Whether you're mouse, human, elf

Whether you're clear skin or full scars

Love, different for each of you stars

The tourtured can feel love from tourture,

With time.

The innocent can feel love from innocent romance- a sweet gesture,

It can change.

The neglected

The disconnected

What star are you?

You might find a star one day

But think of your glow

Is it cold, warm?

What do you draw in?

Hope your travels find what to do

Show you and light your way

Don't be afraid love, take it slow

What kind of love is your love?

Tell them what you like to see

Tell them what habits you hate

Listen to what they wish to see

Listen to any ache or pain

But learn there might be a bend

There might be a break

But don't try to fight each other

You're not the problem

Neither are they

It's not you

You're not the problem

You're a different star, right?

A different color

A different size or shape

You can change your color

Or they can change theirs

But launching comets only hurts both

So launch a real talk

Why use fire

When you can use flowers

Fire burns down lives

Flowers make smiles and honey

From bees

Fire makes everyone hurt and flee

Flowers are like hugs and warm fur

And the prettiest of trees

So

Riddle me This

I think the lonely stars got used to alone

Alone was better than hurt

Neglected disconnected

Started fires

The fires made the new things leave

Kept things normal, set like a stone

Alone was better than hurt

Oddballed introverted

Eventually there was a dimming

There was nothing to achieve

No way to learn since they were alone

Alone was better than hurt

Then at last the star went out

There was no one helping

Not even themselves, they didn't believe

Because they were alone

Alone is not better than alone

Keep shining

Ask for help

Find purpose

Big or small

Singing to the stars

Nothing could compare

They glow all so different

Each a prize one day to love

And to care
