Shooting Star

Tumbling randomly without any semblance of grace Without any companion or a familiar face No path to tread, no orbit to trace Just a nameless rock, in the cold infinite space The distances are large and encounters few Constant darkness, never a soothing hue Fear and desolation seem to be my only friends As I fly through space that has no end From a great distance I see your light Burning brightly and I exert with all my might To turn towards what could be my first sight Of a world without darkness and fright Being alone in space leaves me free Free to make decisions, free to be me But would I like to be alone, make it my destiny Or should I be pulled by the love of gravity But it is tough to resist the allure of light And I make my decision, hoping it is right I fly towards you, feeling no remorse And I feel the pleasure of you pulling me close I am happy that your love I feel And I approach you with a lot of zeal Knowing that my loneliness you will heal Although your love, my fate it will seal I feel pain as your love tears me apart I start to burn, but in my heart I feel love, in every recess small It's better to have felt love, than not have known it at all
