Shine Either Way

There's a star in all of us!! <3

People say you have to see the flash from a camera,

to be famous. The paparazzi in your face.

The spotlight on you for you to be known.

To be rich, is to have fame.

Being a star is one thing, but if you're a dreamer like me,

it's to see the stars. Out from a distance, you own the land.

In the country, there is a silent peace of mind.

You look out to city lights, face to face with beauty.

You don't have to be famous, because you're one of a kind.

You're a dreamer like me, but we all dream of something different.

We dream as the stars dance in the sky.

We dream of the paint on the walls to slowly dry.

We dream to capture the attention of our readers,

for we are writers.

We write about stories that can come true.

You don't have to be a star, to know there's a star in you.

We celebrate for not of awards, but to be alive.

Because there's beauty in everything, including life.

Life gives us our ideas. Without life, we couldn't write.

The sunset's orange, yellow, and red smears our imagination.

The Earth is God's painting and we are a creation of that.

We have been created so we could create.

There's a star in all of us.

So shine your fate.
