My Star
In fourteen hundred ninety two
I gave my heart over to you.
I had three lives and you took them all;
you crushed and slashed and watched me fall.
I would sail by night; sail by day;
I used you,
my star
, to find my way.
My compass,
my star
, helped me to know
exactly which way that I should go.
I thought you'd take good care of my heart,
but instead you burned it and tore it apart.
Maybe it was love, maybe it was truth,
But all I know is that I fell hard in my youth.
In fourteen hundred ninety two
I did exactly what you shouldn't do.
Remade the Columbus Day poem because why not
The original poem is longer than this, but I just didn't feel like writing more
