I am an utter shining star
Since the unknown gross start
But I wasted my full brightness
To pour lightnings over every corner
Instead to radiate on a single inch
Do I regret?
Not yet!
For I follow the natural path of the holism
But my sight may rarely reach
The inner core of a veil
From each way someone looks
At me they won’t be able to measure
The entire strength of my light
It will be spread
In several tiny sparks
Even when I am the big apple that hits
I will be just the slice that fits
Do I pay?
Indeed I say!
By the noisy specialties of the hand
I can see the gaps in my eyes
Feeling the cracks of my soul
The bass & treble of my voice
Through the voices of others
Is dismantled
Even if the absence I fill
Of our absolute love in me
In each second
I will never be
The real me
And every act
Will be a deaf echo
Of the universe of me
You will think I am always less
You will never see me fully
You will never understand me truly.
