Affection

Affection drew me closer
Affectionately, I fell for you
Thinking that I needed you
Wanting to fill a hole in my heart

Agony, I felt ...
The love I thought we had was
interrupted by your peers

In the gloom of darkness
feeble and hesitating my strength
in my own goal

Hopelessly, I waited for the morning star
to brighten up my goal

I want to know ...
was it an artifice?
Was it a dream?
Was it real?
What was it?

Today, I assure myself that I'll never
be deceived again
I will glitter like diamonds on the dark sky

I AM A STAR, AND SO ARE YOU ...
