Not a Star
Not a Star
but a Sun
for stars are for gazing
and suns are for living
one million stars to light up my night
one sun to light up my day
when it rises I smile
when it sets I cry
I stand and stare
as I say goodbye
waiting for yet another rise
as the earth shuts its eyes
I’ll do the same
I dream of no stars
neither constellations nor comets
just one sun
that lights up my life
