The starsA Poem by Lana
Gently, softly, particularly angry
No altitude, no frenzy A carpet full of stickers that says "Thee! Thou shalt see the stars!" Oh, really? I could get so high up in the sky? Oh, to finally feel a sensory load of crashing blobs of stars That say hello, no more cylinder of doves, only beverage of stars, crashing, pouring into my sweet song I reminisce about the times I felt so alone, it wasn't so sweet then, but I remember when I'd crash and burn in bed, and it made me feel no pain, no damn shame Just a fire in the rain, pushing to ignore the pain into a driver's license Suddenly, I get in the car, finally, I see the stars The stars! The stars! They bend as I sing They turn into crystallized sugar as I speak And when I've barely existed I was only just a star! Then it was all I needed to finally exist The irony to fit the narrative of climbing a pit of fissures in the galaxy and dimensions of my needs, so I can see myself, thus, the stars! The stars! Shall I cover myself in crystals and appear like a ghost in the mountains of love, right in front of the sun And buy a mirror, and shine so brightly, the sun and the moon quiver What then? Would I finally see the reflection of the stars from above? © 2024 Lana |
