Stellified! - Part 1
Stars:
Under the Stars there's a newborn creation,
Under the Stars she lies.
Under the Stars lives a bright constellation,
Under the Stars she dies.
We watched the billions come and go,
And noticed very few.
But,
Before the day that she was born,
Her fate was one we knew.
Although we've known her tragedy
Before her time has come.
Still,
We're genuinely sorrowful
Her trial has begun.
Under the Stars comes a soothing elation,
Under the Stars she'll rise.
We saw her heart still beautiful
In life and in her death,
And kept her love still dutiful while struggling for breath.
We carved her story into starlight
So our watchers can beware,
And relish reading of a love as pure as it is rare.

Hello readers, welcome to OCpoetry. This subreddit is a writing workshop community -- a place where poets of all skill levels can share, enjoy, and talk about each other's poetry. Every person who's shared, including the OP above, has given some feedback (those are the links in the post) and hopes to receive some in return (from you, the readers).
If you really enjoyed this poem and just want to drop a quick comment, to show some appreciation or give kudos, things like "great job!" or "made me cry", or "loved it" or "so relateable", please do. Everyone loves a compliment. Thanks for taking the time to read and enjoy.
If you want to share your own poem, you'll need to give this writer some detailed feedback. Good feedback explains from your point of view what it was like to read the poem, and then tries to explain how the poem made you feel like that. If you're not sure what that means, check out our feedback guide, or look through the comment sections of any other post here, or click the links to the author's feedback above. If you're not sure whether your comments are feedback, or you have any other questions, please send us a modmail.
