Starlight Children

The stars
Glimmering endlessly
The meteor shower begins
Marking the beginning
Of something much greater

As a kid I used to watch the stars constantly
Whenever they were out
I’d look out the window
I don’t know why
They always seems nostalgic to me

I’m apparently not the only one
The stars seem nostalgic to hundreds of others my age
I wonder what secrets they hold
Are they distant worlds like one story says?
Or are they the newly departed like another says?

Meanwhile the final battle begins
And upon the chosen hero’s triumph
He discovers it’s already too late
Because a new chapter has begun
Those that reminisce at the stars have begun to fight
