phillips stars

as deeply as this envious state crawls into my bloodstream

I could never desire the admiration you receive

because you are cherished only for your beauty

no person commends the light you shine oh so ever brightly

you're not appreciated for your aptitude

your dreams are disregarded among the souls of the ungracious

I pity you as you dwell in your permanence in the sky

forsaken is your very existance

you are doomed to that title for an eternity

so while you are worshipped by millions

it is a shallow approbation

and I would rather be loved by no one
