I am a star

I have spent years seeing people live,
I have spent years seeing people die.

You look at me and say, "How beautiful bright it is!",
You look at me and say, "wish I could be that bright too".

I live so far, that my existence for you, barely lies,
yet I live so near, to shine right in your eyes.

You can look at me as a ball which emits just rays of light,
You can look at me as a god which shows a hope to your sight.

I have lived long enough to surpass all mortality,
yet it takes just a pinch of kindness, to fathom my immortality.

Don't spend all your life just gazing at me,
just live for your dreams and one day you will indeed become me.
