How many stars will I kill tonight?
Thousands if I let my dark voices in with no fight.
Quel my fears with a lasso I can hold.
Yank them to the side, and focus on the things I can control.
Cherish everything that brings me joy.
Sure tomorrow can be great,
but right now is what I must appreciate.

Among billions,
all I need is one bright star
to join my starlight.
