A Star

I know one day I will be a star.
My hard works will shine bright and far.
My fans will appreciate my aesthetics,
And my rhythmic kinetics.

I'm sick of people saying that I have potential.
I think they are jealous and sometimes resentful.
I know that some think that I can be replaced,
But there is no star like me of any creed or race.

Me-a star.
I will go far,
In the galaxy,
Of my own.
Me- a star.
I will shine,
Bright with cheer.
Me- a star.
Being here in my own,
Galaxy,
I will have no fear.

I love the poem 'A star'. Bold write and belive. Surely, we are all stars, without lights, it's left for each and everyone, to make itself shrine, brighter than they can ever imagine. Thanks for using ur poem to help me remember that I need to shine more. Lots of joy! Kingfemi.
