To Know Who You Are

I saw you and wanted to know who you are.
You looked like you could be my brightest  star.
In my life that seemed so dark,

We passed without  a work spoken
Because  I was afraid  of getting my heart broken  

If the day comes our paths cross again
Knowing that if must be faith, I will grin.

Not scared this time I will  speak
But I will not beg because  I'm not weak.

The lover is the brightest star and he can break your heart as well. Wonderful contrast. Keep writing..
