Poem: Stars

This is an edited version of the story
created to put someone to sleep.
Stars are not hidden,
but our eyes which failed to see them.
Never once they’re asked to shine alone in the sky,
but with the others in the darkest night.
Have a close look at the people around
and we would then realize
how close we are with the legend of the night.
Keeping us company despite the tiring burdens and smiles,
they shine.
Without giving much attention,
we carry on with our tasks given,
ignoring the significant light.
Sometimes wonder why,
but there is no reply.
To continue their duty on free will,
the stars shining bright.
No complains, no backing out,
they remain still.
Guiding us, loving us and be there by our sides.
