Starchild

Surrounded within the frozen tundra 
Where the sun hangs in darkness 
At all times of day
I look in front of me

Beyond the wintery winds 
Across a landscape of century old
Ice 
An old man looks at me 

He stands so tall
Whispers of death escaping him
Into the cruelty 
Of the winds echo

But 
I hold a fire within myself 
A small flame 
That's never faltered to the winds 

On my knees 
Frozen hands clenched into fists 
An eternal warmth 
Consumes me 

Starchild! 

Move towards distances unknown 
And be unafraid 
Of the relentless winter winds 
That seek to still you 

Starchild! 

Move across the ways 
Like a spark 
Tear asunder the darkness 
And fall down like a burning star 

Starchild! 

Nothing can champion you
There is no dearth in your heart
Only flames 
That burn forever
