I am that star.

I am that star.

I am a star that looks upon all at night,
I am a star that is always by itself,
You'll probably know me as the one that doesn't shine as much,
or the one that strays from the 'popular' constellations.
i am a star that gets picked on from the others because i am the smallest, even the man in the moon laughs at me.
But instead of spiting back at them i laugh back....... you wanna know why?
because i am a star that is alone for a reason, 
i stray from the constellation because when one burns they all burn, 
i am that star that is the smallest but is the most constant star there is,
i am a star that will always be looking out for you from above,
every night,
i am the star that is sometimes out during the day,
the one you tell your secrets too, the one to cherish them
or the star that cries with you, for i am the star that is alone for a reason...
to be a constant reminder that you will always have a friend and that  you are not alone..
Yes, I am that star.

"i am that star that is the smallest but is the most constant star there is" is my favorite line... It reminds me how fast I got exhausted when I tried to please everyone... and now, I am looking for the ones who would like to have me shine over them with my dim light... I hope you don't mind me taking this personally:)

Anyways this is a beautiful piece that I can relate to:)

There are more stars in the heavens than there are grains of sand on earth. So, your little star is very special. I believe I've seen that star on a late afternoon, shining in the distance. Good job.

[The Realist]

Very true indeed Ted Kniffen.
but im fairly confident that it is YOU'RE special star that you saw....

This poem took me back to a road trip I took with my family. It would get particularly creepy and I would back with the windows down staring up at the night sky. somehow comforted by the fact there were so many stars watching over me. The Brightest of them all seemed to shine in tandem with my thoughts. Now that I am working I forgot about those moments.

Thank you for bringing back the memory

'i am the star that is alone for a reason... - to be a constant reminder that you will always have a friend and that you are not alone..'

The stars and i chat every night... and you, little star, merely whisper but, is most distinctly heard

The large, the mighty, the noisy, the play-actor eventually explode into fragments or lose their strength. You, sweet little star, hang shimmering in grace and lay such lovely thoughts and love to those needing your light. Thank you for being you.

A poem about the North Star is what it seems to me. The reader definitely gets taken to the image of a lone star and then the north star springs to mind. It is a worthy piece of prose.
