Six Lines

Line one, the stars are shining under the sun. Line two, they are more alive than anybody ever knew. Line three, they're screaming out in pain, hoping we will see. Line four, they don't want to be stars anymore. Line five, secretly they're already dead while we're fully alive. Line six, we're the kind of broken that only the stars can fix.
