To My Star

I cry all night thinking about me and my concern.
How could you not know , that my soul is about to burn.
Thanks is not a word that is compatible.
Gimme a chance , i will prove my self capable.
You told me , chance is not always got; we should go in search of.
I should create my own; dusting the talents i hide thereof.
I am not gonna pester you anymore by asking,
but if I don't , how will i know in which way in lacking?
I will suffer now and work hard all day,
so that I could live a life in my own way.
Now that I m getting more clear about my life,
I m strong enough to face it than letting my nerve run through the knife.
I know you have so much of responsibilities and people to take care.
Forget me! I will take care of mine , it's a dare.
I was thinking people for future and lived life for the present,
but you made me think about life now for a future that would be pleasant.
One day everyone might leave us and go and we would be all alone.
But now if I have a grip, i might not suffer that time and mourn.
Don't think your bothering me and interfering in my work.
If not you , then who ? Around you I am a berk!
