Two Stars

A star in the sky is hard to reach,
But I have a star I can touch.
The sky star is far away,
Mine is close.
They both shine.
The sky star shines bright, but cold,
My star shines bright and warm.
They eyes of my star twinkle,
My star is alive and human.
The star in the sky sets a goal,
A goal found, but never reached.
My stars not my goal,
But a force behind me to reach it.
