Maiden of Asteria

She calls her woes up to the stars

And hopes that they will listen

There is promise in their lustre

And a peace in how they glisten

She sheds her tears in moonlight

For there they seem to glow

And as it wanes o’er coming days

Her sorrows likewise go

She whispers her dark secrets

To the planets she implores

Perhaps the power of their names

Is one that can restore

She makes her wish in darkness

For that is when it’s needed

Delivered to the heavens

So in the light of day it’s heeded
