Gold

You're the center of attraction 
Even the stars are dying for your attention
The light of your every motion 
Creates a commotion 

Your gleaming glow is so pleasing to the eye 
Its amber hue makes everyone so high 
Sometimes, I could not even understand why 
They crave you so much like the sky 

Even if you are just still 
You make so much beans to spill 
Like you're the king of the highest hill 
You could command what others should feel 

Even just a mere sight of your shadow 
Gives the minds a blow 
Even hearts that are hollow 
See you like a light to follow 

They guard you every night and day 
They don't even have a holiday 
They want to watch you every minute, every way 
They put much weight to everything that you say
