They Speak to the Stars

 Wide green eyes stare at the skies

"Let's play" he says "let's play"

The stars wink and smile down

"Hello, little one, let's"

"Let's"

And he smiles and reaches out

 Blazing blue eyes, stare defiantly at the skies

"I won't" she growls "I won't"

The stars giggle and look down

"Then don't, little one"

"Then don't"

And she smiles and reaches out

 Teary brown eyes blink at the moon

"I can't" they sob "I can't"

The stars tut sympathetically down

"Then don't little, fight it"

"They can't make you"

And they smile and reach out

Joyous violet eyes peer at the ether

"I did it" xe laughs "I did it"

The stars proudly smile down

"So you did, little one"

"So you did"

And xe smiles and reaches out

"We want," "we won't"

We can't we don't

I do, but I don't

But I can't... sO i WoN't

The stars speak to us all

The happy, the innocent, the forsaken

The angry, the hopeless the broken
