a safe distance

The farthest star we can see with our naked eye is V762 Cas in Cassiopeia at 16,308 light-years away. Its brightness is magnitude 5.8 or just above the 6th magnitude limit.

Of all the beautiful stars above,

I'd be found within Cassiopeia. 

The farthest star we can see with the naked eye. 

She must be content, to be kept in safe distance, 

to be loved from afar. 

Because to see me is to never know me. 

My tiny twinkle ready to disappear,

if you even approach or come too near.

Happy, floating alone in my atmosphere.
