Starlong, My Mother

My name, is Starlong In a far, far corner of the galaxy I live, even today Once upon a time I was the creator Of an entire solar system At first, there was nothing to share And because the planets were cold and dark I was truly alone As such, I began to crave Their companionship Devoid of warmth, though they were Eventually, my flames brought them to life And they called me: Mother.
