I’d loved the light always
and now I’m trying,
trying to fall in love,
with as many things-
as possible, and for now,
I love the dark just as much,
I have a billion companions,
only two I can call friends,
How ironical can life be
The beauty of things as such,
I shine brighter than your sun ,
when I begin to collapse,
And as you look at me,
I appear to be a mystery,
I never knew lukewarm-
I burn white hot
for my passion,
I want something special,
of my very own,
I burn with that desire,
Is that longing or is it lust?
But I have the universe –
inside me-
I am made of stardust.
