Consistence

Stars are consistent.
Since I was young, 
The stars always came at night. 

When I was happy,
The stars were a beautiful gaze.
When I was sad, 
The stars put me to sleep.
When I was depressed, 
The stars told me stories. 
When I didn't think I'd make it until morning,
The stars put me in a trance
Until the sun could prove I survived. 

I've never known consistency other than the stars. 
At times they were my only friend-
My confidant.
They've always kept my secrets. 
They never judged.

Every night they return, 
And sparkle as I speak. 
They remind me I'm not alone:
That there's something that will always come back.

The stars give me hope;
They give me relief. 
I always know they'll be there-
No matter what I do or say. 

Stars are consistent.
