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.
