Once upon a time, I met this star in front of the cross
one morning
while praying
the star caught my attention
I thought it didn't notice me
but every time I pass by this star
every time we're in the same vicinity
It never fails to give a glitter glance at me
and I to it
Many times it's the first one I see
when I open my eyes
after praying
It never failed to bid hello
It never failed to throw a smile
It never failed to give a stare that says it cares
One day I saw my star dancing
with a diamond star
the star he's been dancing with
light years beyond and back
I waited for his caring glance
and still caught it
the diamond star casts a glance at me as well
a glance so sharp my eyes hurt
I had to close them
I tried to close them
tried to not seek his glance for surely I'd be burned again
the diamond star enveloped our sky
our cross
our vicinity
suddenly
my star faded
