Just because you know objectively that the stars don't revolve around
the earth Doesn't mean that on the nights when you gaze into the night
sky it isn't true that it was painted for you
</p>
<div class="star-sep"></div>
<p>
Just because you know the stars don't revolve around the Earth Doesn't
mean that on the nights that you gaze into the sky they weren't placed
there just for you
</p>
<div class="star-sep"></div>
<p>
Even if you knew the universe didn't revolve around the Earth and
Humanity; why would you not let the moments, gazing into the sky, feel
like it were a painting made just for us.
</p>
<div class="star-sep"></div>
<p>
Why, if the stars were not painted for us, would they be placed so
perfectly with us on our backs and hand in hand?
</p>
<div class="star-sep"></div>
<p>
The way the stars shine now, are unequivocally for us. Were we anywhere
else, they would not be so.
</p>
<div class="star-sep"></div>
<p>
"Look at the stars. They are so pretty.<br />
They are so pretty. They make me think of you"
